And I will of course leave comments here to
And in other news, Tom has done an ok job in Qatar, ending up at an 7th place, winning stage 5. Jerome has also done it well this week, ending up at 14th in Challenga Ciclista a Mallorca. He was in the break during the race, but the break was rolled in so he ended in the front of the pack. Dario has been racing Challenga Ciclista a Mallorca as well, ending up in a break to, not succesfull breaks though. We also took the 5th in the TTT in Qatar, stage won by sky, taking the leader jersey. That was the news for now, stay tuned for more

Paris-Nice? Paris-Roubaix you meant
LOL, it is cool to see a team for the classics! Most of them are for stage races like the GT's! In most of the PCM's Boonen is the men to beat at in the March and April classics so i'm looking forward to it!
Good luck Pazflor, ugh, ugh, Patrick!

2009 (1): Youth classification Giro d`Italia
Wouter Weylandt, he's called WWSpecial, weird, maybe he can do something special this season?
He begun he's career here, and has been hole his career.
