We're going to start running out of good(ish) cyclists at this rate...
EDIT:
And I do believe the team is actually just Kinesis UK in a different form. I'd bet a small amount of money that half the squad will be some of the KUK boys. Most of which I'm just as good as, which tells you just how good the squad is going to be... or isn't.

nobody mentioned the Columbia's 85th win by Greipel in Paris-Bourges yesterday equaling the last year's success.
Way to go!

Rein Taaramäe did a performance test. He did 500W in the end at 95rpm. He is the first Estonian cyclist to achieve such numbers.

That's really nice! Gesink did 515W at the start of the season test. (and was the first ever Rabo rider over 500W). So that's very good of Taaramae

Indeed, great work Taaramäe. Shame that he felt bad in la Vuelta, I had the feeling that he could have done something good. |

I also have some hopes on Taaramäe.
But sad news. Marcus Ljungqvist end his career on Paris-Tours with the Swedish championship jersey on his shoulders. He "refused" RadioShack contract. |

apparently it's just the manager of the kinesis squad who's going to raleigh. will be at least interesting as to whom they sign

British Cycling fans sans Sky, watch out!
Shane Sutton revealed yesterday Sky are looking for rights to "certain" races. No word on what they are, certainly not the Tour (Seeing as ITV have it to 2013 and Eurosport have international rights).
One things sure, they've rebought the Tour down Under rights.
(Sorry, got the name wrong  )

that just ruined my day.
The good news is he is in a much better condition than he was. (I remember hearing it's an induced coma, can someone check up on that)
