Actually, if you look in figure A, you will see gross precipitation values for the Okhotsk basin during high season.

Rumours confirmed: Cervelo has signed with Andreas Klier, Serge Pauwels and Hayden Roulston.
Also, Ezequiel Mosquera has extended his contract with Xacobeo for another two years. |

Popovych is supposedly continuing at Silence - Lotto.
Also, Clement Lhotellerie has signed with Cervelo Test Team. |

Again: Popovych was not fired, it's all bullshit from the media. He is rumoured to be retiring and Lotto management has repeatedly stated that they hadn't even made the decision on whether or not to offer him a contract renewal.
In other news, when Gárate was asked whether Contador is leaving Astana, he said something like "Unless Bruyneel acts very quickly".

Yeah, but Bruyneel has come out and said "He (Contador) will remain with his team for the next two years. Actually, it's pretty simple - there's a contract and there are no options to leave."
I'll be anxious to see how that shakes out.

Are you saying this isn't a friendly place? Are you saying we're not friendly, caring people? Are you calling me a liar? Wanna take this outside?

If a big team comes with alot of money they can buy Contador out of his contract, but I don't really see that happening. Maybe Caisse D'Espargne is a option but they already have Piti. Katusha does have the money but they do not have a strong enough team for Conta.
So i think he will probably stay with Astana. |

Lets cross our fingers for Contador leaving. Then Levi can lead the team, like he was supposed to at the tour 2007

Isn't the issue with Conta leaving because he thinks he won't get the leadership over Armstrong? And Levi for sure doesn't get the leader role over Conta. So using logic.... |

But you fail to factor in the Conta-asshole variable. That overrides all logic.

If Conta leaves, I don't think you can expect to see Levi sitting on Armstrong's wheel in next year's Tour de France. It will definitely be the other way around |

But Lance has had 3 years to sit on his ass and Levi has only gotten better with age.

Yes, but Lance is Lance, can you really see him as a helper for Levi Leipheimer ? I think he'd better lose than do it, at least in the first mountain stages. |

Lance in his time was 9 lightyears better than Levi Leipheimer.
Remember, at the time he was leader at Rabobank, at least 7/8 guys a year were better. Only when Armstrong retired and the Puerto riders all stopped or went to continental teams, Leipheimer came surfacing to the top. I don't know at what level Armstrong is now, but even if he gotten a bit worse, he is still better than Levi |

I can't believe that armstrong will be good enough to win the tour, because he had such a long racing break if he wins it again i would be really astonished if he could do it. even Bruynel said that he is worried because of armstrongs long racing break. And i read that armstrongs first target is to publish the fight against cancer
