Am I getting crazy because of the number of threads or some posts are being deleted?

Ah the rest day. One of only two days in these three weeks where I get a decent night of sleep.

I hope for completly clean Sky just because of the sport in Britain itself. If something bad will be revealed, the sport will be destroyed there forever...

Yeah Tony rode without his cast yesterday and really felt the pain in his hand. QPQS team doctor advised him to abandon because by trying to unload the stress from his hand and wrist knees are getting affected. |

After seeing him battle on this far with his injuries, it doesn't come as a shock to me |

They seemed very keen to get a competitive TT in for him before the Olympics and apparently the favouring of the hand was resulting in knock on effects to his back and legs. Hope he will be in good condition in time for a battle at the games. |

Ever since the crash, Brian Holm has said Martin would try to make it through to the time trial, then abandon. No surprise there. |

Exactly, we are currently rebuilding after all the other drugs scandles that didn't even involve our own riders. Most people here still think of doping when the think of cycling, despite having higher profile British doping cases in Athletics (Dwain Chambers)

We are 3 weeks away from the time trial. It's enough time to bounce back.
