Guest Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 +1. Where did Kreuzinger go? He is at Astana and team leader for Giro and co-leader for TDF with Vino. LG have the best grand tour team around strengths wise and with their proven over and over systematic doping system they have they are a formidible team and they have shown it over and over again. Alot like the US Postal team in the early 2000's.
Guest Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 You mean blood tested at top to see how quickly the latest drug is absorbed so as to get the dose right in time for the tours. Corretly said, Checchini must have new stuff on the market he is trying out once again.

LOL, thats classic, anyways I tend to agree with sentiments that at this level they all gotta be doing something hey, so lets see who is up there come Le Tour time.
Guest Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 so lets see who is up there come Le Tour time. Astana, Liqigas, Saxo, Leopard. The teams with a good proven system. Radioshack should be to but no matter how much you pump in those veins of that team when you 40+yrs old it doesnt do what its meant to. Regardless it will be a good tour.
Spat Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Will be interesting to see Vinoukorov try to go out with a win. Agree the winner should come from either:Astana, Liqigas, Saxo, Leopard With podium finishes for the others.
trekpostal Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 cannot wait for the TdF - I have always liked Basso from the CSC days - my money is on him if he gives the Giro a miss for the TdF
The Drongo Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) Now is this not xactly what we hear constant complaining about.Roadies riding 12 abreast, no HELMUTS... I mean for pity sake, can they not see they are p!33!ng the motorist behind them off?He's flashing lights and everything. That is zackery why I have no heros. BAD example all of them.And the one in front with that stupid floppy hat on looks like he is on dope! Edited February 18, 2011 by The Drongo

Spinnekop Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 SOme nice training camp in somewhere they did the past two weeks. Looking good.Some new Cannondale bike also popping up on the radar.
'Dale Posted February 19, 2011 Author Posted February 19, 2011 I hope for your sake he will be a contender this year Airbender, he has looked lack lustre in the last tour. I would love to see some real hectic competition in the GC standings. Nibali may be the man in this team.He was out of woema after victory in the Giro d' Italia a few weeks before.

Agree the winner should come from either:Astana, Liqigas, Saxo, Leopard With podium finishes for the others.Vino wants to wear the yellow jersey for once, even though he knows he will not hold onto it for long. He's nevva had the Golden Fleece over his shoulders.He expressed this as he is looking at retirement.

Your lack of education shows Back to topic *kinda* Did anyone hear the commentators for the Tour of Qatar announce Team Leopard as Leo-pard (as two words). Chops I say!
'Dale Posted February 28, 2011 Author Posted February 28, 2011 Ice cool!! Ma Man Basso won a race this past weekend. A close sprint finish in the 180km GP du Lugano in Switzerland.Great confidence booster for this special rider. His 1st victory in February since 2001! http://cdn4.media.cyclingnews.futurecdn.net//2011/02/27/2/bettiniphoto_0071605_1_full_600.jpghttp://cdn4.media.cyclingnews.futurecdn.net//2011/02/27/2/bettiniphoto_0071597_1_full_600.jpghttp://cdn2.media.cyclingnews.futurecdn.net//2011/02/27/2/bettiniphoto_0071626_1_full_600.jpg
GrumpyOldGuy Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Yeah, good on him. Seems he had a nice train going there, hardly considered him a bit of a sprinter but obviously he can pack a bit of a turn of speed.
