Haha.. Turns out that Team RadioShack-Nissan-Trek is against UCI rules. Apparently, UCI will only allow 2 sponsors to be mentioned in the name.

Team Fail-o-tard - FailShack does indeed seem to be the theme of their overall strategy ever since Becca took over management. Something tells me he's a bit of an ass. |

What happened to your signature about italians and spaniards ruining the sport with doping? |

"Hi there Nissan. You know that contract you signed where you paid us a few million to have your name on the team? Yeah, about that...."
EDIT: Meanwhile Ponferrada confirmed as the site of the 2014 Worlds.
Can you say "Valverde winning"?

I can say Contador winning the ITT. Valverde I'm not that sure.

So, it's Movistar. Damn it. Say I spent two years wondering who'd get his signature. Never'd have thought of Movistar.  |

Here is some news about Soler, as I hadn't seen anything being posted about his condition, although maybe I just haven't noticed. It's in Spanish though.
https://www.revist...;Itemid=74
Google translating it, it seems that he has had successful facial surgery and is beginning to recover psychologically as well as regaining his sense of movement which is good news at least. |

The hour record has lost its fame lately. I miss the days when top riders like Indurain and Rominger were fighting for it.
Well, ok, it was mostly a showroom for Dr. Ferrari, but still... |

Jaan has not signed an extension for next year yet. He has received the contract but he is yet to agree to it.
