maybe this isn't for the news but I saw this picture with Lance, and I have one question why the f*ck he doesn't wear the Astana jersey. I know he supports the fight with the cancer but come on

I don't think that it's ethical. But then again, I don't have any other suggestions. |

You only have to wear (and are bound legally) your trade team kit when training and racing. So for most riders being paid a wage, yes they will wear the Astana kit all year round. For Lance, going on what was originally said, he isn't being paid a wage by Astana, so doesn't have to wear their kit all the time. Plus take into account that the new season hasn't started yet means he still doesnt have to wear the kit. If you look on cycling news at the article about Garmin, you'll see their new additions to the team are still wearing their old trade team kits because they haven't actually technically changed teams until some set date (that I don't know).

Exactly what I thought. I think it's Levi, because as I said above, Lance's sponsors this year (just ending) are Cancer and Nike...

Well, the picture caption said it was the first picture of Lance in his new Astana duds... but to be honest I can't tell due to the shadows. If it's not Lance, I apologize. |

No the only thing that made me think it was lance was the bike. The glasses - shoes are all Levi style.
Also T-Baum stop spamming the thread. |
