1t4i had an sponsor. They just were weirdos and didn't want to show it before April or so.
I forget the details, but Argos had an exclusive contract to support some competition in some other sport so they couldn't announce it until that contract ended.
Yeah, I knew there was a reason (I didn't know which one) for it.
Still, weirdos. 
Project 1t4i is a very cool name you know

Say I always thought the first rule of sponsorship was to get exposure for your sponsor, not hide it.
They're just thinking outside the box! Way outside!

The UCI have issued a statement on the matter, putting the blame on the fans and the audience for focusing too much on doping.

It'll be weird with Rabo. Hopefully there generic kit will still be orange and blue. Don't ask me why, I don't know.

When I see that jersey I think of Kirchen great win at Fleche. Good memories

Luckily, that'll never happen. It'll just be:
Gilbert wins again, we're already waiting for half an hour for the second rider to arrive... |

EDIT: Because you can't see the url link, Christophe Bassons missed a doping control at a MTB race and might be suspended for a year...

If im not mistaken its 3 out of competition tests.
This one was a test taking after a race, so he has no excuse for not showing and thus he would ave to get a uspension as per UCI Rules
