How can that trouble you? That's the way justice works. Once the court, in this case the USADA panel, pass sentence, all you can do is either appeal, or take it. Lance didn't appeal, so he accepted the sentence.

I suppose it's the difference between admitting and accepting, small difference but a difference none the less. Anyway I'm going way off topic here.

I will not change my picture ever from Lance, but if he gets stripped of his wins, my avatar is no longer true, but I will definitely tribute him in my signature

You should photoshop a pic of him doing his "7" thing and change it to him make a 0

Bobbie Traksel (Landbouwkrediet) took a nasty crash in Poitou-Charentes, suffering a few broken ribs and a broken clavicula. He already had surgery...

Brixia Sports taking over Liquigas Pro Cycling Project.
That is just the holding company, but they expect to announce new sponsor(s) soon, while all riders with a contract for next year will stay.

Vanmarcke's agent slams Lotto
“He’s not returning to a Belgian team. It was reported that QuickStep expressed interest in Sep. I also spoke to Lefevere. He had a good story and it was an option but it wasn’t in Sep’s best interests to go there. At least Lefevere had a good plan though. Lotto, they had no plan. There’s no plan in that team for a guy like him,” said Berkhout.
Meanwhile, Evans' excuse for poor performance this time is an infection.

That's not very nice. For a team with no plan and a modest budget to make it to 8th in the UCI team ranking is not so bad. |

The same infection that screwed up his Early-mid season and Tour Preperations? Seems like he's had this infection for a long time

What if it's the same infection that Froome had?  He'll win the Tour next year. |

Yep. What unfortunates BMC are, that every single one of their stars just magically happened to have a bad year at the same time. Ballan is still nowhere near 2006-2008 form. Evans. Hushovd. Van Avermaet. Gilbert.
Clearly just a coincidence

McQuaid said it`s still an very important race and after the last "fine-tuning" it will be raced in 2013.
So let`s wait for next year I guess.  |

Actually the logical chain would be that he will forget next year that he wanted a race named Tour of Hangzhou
