Needless to say, Bo Hamburger did dope for longer than just the period from 95-97 which he claimed when he admitted the first time.
It was in fact 95-03... or perhaps longer. I suppose we'll know eventually. |

Not big news, but I guess you guys would expect me to post it if you'd come across it...
Kelderman wants to do Giro - Vuelta. Giro for GC, Vuelta just as a helper and getting experience.
Not sure if smart, but if he just goes there as a helper, and not fully peaking for it, I can't see it doing too much harm...
Plus I see him in action in 2 GTs. 
Pretty happy with Utrecht 2015 btw, I think I'm going to be there.

Utrecht 2015 comes awfully soon after Rotterdam 2010 though, IMO. Germany f.e. would have been a good choice, not that i care much really.

I find that Corsica 2013 came very soon after Vendee 2011...

Yes, as if the French didn't get to see enough of it anyway,..

Well, maybe you're right Dippofix, but I'm not complaining
The Netherlands is a good option geographically, since it's pancake-flat(like the first stages are most of the time), and there's a good possiblilty to pick up some hills(also Limburg though) and cobbles in Belgium on the way to France. But well, Germany would be good as well, indeed.

Germany  Well..
Düsseldorf wanted the grand depart between 2006 and 2008 but that never happened and so scrapped it. They wanted to show that they are a sports city and therefore the Tour start
Berlin wants to apply for 2016 or 2017. With the current major of Berlin plus even the opposition has nothing against it, but just if the costs are well calculated, that could happen.
But I wouldn't wonder if that will also not happen as when Greipel and Kittels stage wins are now just worth a sentence.
During the Ullrich era the media would have filled pages.

Yeah, and half of that sentence would have to do with doping in some way or another.
@Jesleyh it could be much worse, imagine the tour starting on the Faroe Islands, or maybe in Russia for the money.

Seems Lefevre persuaded Uran to ride Giro - Vuelta.

OPQS Tour team could be well insane.

Interview with the Belgian stage racers, Jurgen Vandenbroeck want to try Ardennes this year, to see where he can end up. He's realising he needs to get some wins in his career. Thomas De Gendt will ride the Giro for Uran, let's hope he can get back to his old form.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Meh, someone should be a rival for Froome.
I want Quintana to ride Le Tour 
Also to give Kelderman a chance on the U25 jersey
