He probably backed contador on betfair then started posting false rumours hoping to lay it off for a profit.

The provisional start list was announced this morning and there is no Astana. No chance you could get a team together by Thursday in time for the presentation anyway!

It's starting to sound like the plot of a Hollywood Cycling film in the 80's, all we need is the re-formation of the Soviet Union and we're set to go. (with the obvious flaw that Astana would be part of the soviet union, but oh well)

It was a JOKE lads!

But stranger things have happened.

Off to the Etape Thursday. Good luck to any participating; and best wishes to the couch potatoes!

When you say slow and relaxed you mean there won't be a team of doped-up superhumans controlling every second of the race? Sounds like it'll be a lot more interesting, not to mention cleaner race.

No head in the sand here. Do you have any interest in cycling? Or do you just post stupid comments on the cycling boards for three weeks of every year?
