Kicking off August is the Olympic Games Time Trial Race!
Will Fabian Cancellara battle through is injuries to win the Gold?
Or Will Bradley Wiggins prevail and give Great Britain their first gold medal of the 2012 Olympics!?
Thoughts?
Also, we have some pretty good races this month with Pro Cycling Challenge and of course vuelta a Espana!!
Any news to speak of?

Then maybe there's no need for a new thread before there's some actual news to put in it ?  |

It's a tradition to start the news thread without any news. You don't mess with traditions.

It's always an American or Australian (guilty) that posts it feeling proud of starting a new thread that all be used all month. I know that feel bro.
Uhh, has there been a mention of Tom Boonen's post-Olympics schedule? Vuelta maybe?

You mean apart from the fact that their clothing supplier has pulled out of sponsorship?

I don't know if someone already posted this but:
"Radioshack loses "Enovos" sponsorship because of the Schleck doping case"

I read that too.
I hope that helps cyclists and staff to realise that there are financial consequences to doping, although I think they're all hopeless.
If they were already in trouble for paying the wages, it's not going to make things easier for them.

Schleck doesn't seem very worried about that. Or he gets suspension or he goes to a new team. It would be worse if a major sponsor like Nissan left the team. Anyway, it's an advice for the riders (They don't take it seriosly though). |

Fuglsang may yet ride WT races this season
due to a lack of fit riders for RSNT over the coming weeks/months
he may be riding the Canadian Classics
https://www.cyclin...his-season
also, Froome vs Contador, rd1, the 2012 Vuelta

Unsure if he can cope with Contador on his own, or if he'll end up like one of those sidekicks beaten to death by the villain.
Looking forward to seeing it anyway. |
