If we must look historical. Nobody will ever beat the best team name ever. And the easiest to spell. It's "Z".

I certainly agree its easiest remembered, plus they had a great superhero kit. But perhaps you've overlooked jelly belly? |

A few weeks ago, I mentioned that Team Reelight is having an auction at the moment. The winner of it will become title sponsor. Highest bid is currently 11.000 DKR (1.475 €), and the auction closes in 5 hours. |

Dekker to Rotterdam Six Day
Dutch rider Thomas Dekker will kick off his 2009 season at the Rotterdam Six Day, his publicist announced Friday. Dekker will pair up with his friend Jens Mouris, an experienced track cyclist for the event.
Dekker had a difficult 2008 season, during which he was left off the Rabobank team's Tour de France squad and subsequently split with the team. He signed with the Silence-Lotto squad, and is beginning to solidify his programme for the coming early season.
Dekker's preliminary schedule has him at the Silence-Lotto camp from December 9-17, followed by the Rotterdam Six Day on January 2-7. He will then take in another team camp in January before kicking off the race season at the Etoile de Bessèges.
He hopes to then tackle the Vuelta a Andalucia (Ruta Ciclista Del Sol), Tirreno-Adriatico, which he won in 2006, Milano-Sanremo, the Vuelta a Pais Vasco, followed by the Ardennes Classics, Amstel Gold Race, La Flèche Wallonne and Liège - Bastogne - Liège.
----
In bold, that's me. Dunno why cyclingnews suddenly made me Dekkers pr-guy, but appearently they have nothing better to do than to fuck up  |

Yes, that's what I thought.
Quite a few teams announced they were pulling out of the PT, but are now back in.
So, Liquigas are guaranteed an invite to the TdF? |

During Garmin Chipotles traning camp, they held a little party. Where Bradley Wiggins was challenged to drink 4 big beers. But he couldn't, so he had take a run around the parking lot naked.
