I was happy to notice that TdF month have already begin.
T.Dekker and Flecha resigned Rabo contract..not surprised-good balanced team and Rabo should have Nobel price: Work with young cyclist in Netherland and best team structure in the world.

Got to agree with you Guido, it's a very well made up team, they have pretty much every base covered don't they? Menchov and Rasmussen in the mountains, Freire and Brown in the Sprints, Boogerd in the Hills, Flecha for the Classics, and great young talents like Dekker and Gesink.
I'm also very happy that July is here again, I plan on becoming very nocturnal over the next few weeks, I can't wait for the Alps and the Pyrenees! Then maybe I'll even have the strength to wake up the next day and get out in the hills myself...maybe. |

as for bringing up youngsters, only Lotto can come close with their structure. well done Rabobank.

definitely better where he is. as for Lotto and Rabobank I meant considering their whole structure of smaller teams and youth programs. not just developing those that are already professionals.

But luckily i am here to tell him  He is at the best team at the moment and they will make him even better than he is now. Nobody can rival our youngsters but i am surprised that nobody mentioned Discovery, they have invested alot in asia.

actually you ride with whichever country your team is registered as. for instance with CSC you ride as Denmark.

No, I don't think it will change. The same people will run the site - it will just have some other owners. |

Correct..we have seen sord of owner change before. If they buy well working product, usualy they wont change anything...there is no reason to mess with propely running-developed product. |
