SwissVan Posted September 21, 2009 Share Yes he (Adrien) got some good coverage out the Tour of Ireland, he has quite a "rags to riches" type of story and it would be awesome if he become part of the regular europro scene. HOWEVER Jumping the gun and making ASSumptions....should a team qualify for an entry to the holy grail of cycling (TDF) just cause it was a "Team from Africa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get given these entries and then get embarressed by the gulf in performance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
