Hein Verbruggen and his band of merry idiots have committed another faux pas: Oscar Freire cannot wear his World Championship jersey at Milan-San Remo this weekend. Instead he will wear the time-honored (/sarcasm) Pro Tour Leader's Jersey.
Way to go, Hein!
Can you put a traffic signal changer on a bike? No more red lights for the group ride!
Erik Saunders has been a friend of The Spin Cycle for some time now. He's a decent guy who's never afraid to speak his mind (Translation: Smartass who has trouble keeping his opinion to himself, kinda like me). But Saunders is a PRO, and normally pretty cool, and should know better than to make a heinous fashion statement like this abortion over his rear wheel. Where's the rear view mirror, baby?

UPDATE: Don't forget to read the article that the picture comes from - McGuire/Langdale looks to have a good team this year.
The Dodge Tour de Georgia website now has detailed roadmaps of all stages. Stages 5 and 6 are killer. Ouch.
News Flash: Mario Cipollini won over Grillo and Petacchi at Giro di Lucca. More detail when I have it.
Update: CyclingNews has brief results posted.
The Floyd's (that's Floyd Landis, for the uninitiated) website has a new look. Check it out!
As we get closer to the The Dodge TdG, more team names have been released by the TdG staff, and some others have been confirmed in the media. Here's a revised list of definite, highly probable, and borderline teams for the TdG:
Well, the one neat little rumor that I was really hoping for hasn't worked out, and we will not see Roberto Heras or Liberty Seguros here at the TdG in April.
But we still have a chance for Mario. We also have definite confirmation that Credit Agricole will be here (you heard THAT rumor here first!) with Georgia Native Saul Raisin.
Cathy Mehl has a great interview with Stan Holm (TdG Race Director) over at the Daily Peloton - it's a must read!
BTW, I've added a new category strictly for TdG postings. I'll be updating all my earlier posts to reflect this over the next day or so, so that you can get all the TdG posts in one handy link.
