Nah, twas aimed only at Tuart.

Anyway, if they wanted to really go Australian, it's a wonder they didn't sign the likes of Haas.

Yeah but ram, you can't annoy me.  :fp :D

Can you imagine if Haas was around a year later? I'd hate to be a tissue in your house...

;D LOL

I don't really believe this story to be honest. I think Cavendish had a Sky transfer in mind right from the start. He probably had some talks for GreenEdge and they decided not to make an offer. Good decision by them, but it's not like Cav was begging them to sign him. They probably weren't even his first choice. Heavily overblown article, but well, what do you expect.

Still a good choice by GreenEdge to focus on Australian talent rather than sign big(ger) names from other countries. Although I certainly wouldn't mind them signing some GC talent. And with Evans unavailable, that will have to be from another country.

Fignon - In my day, doping methods were derisory and the riders´exploits were massive.
For the last 15 years or so  it has been the other way rond: there is a huge number of ways in which riders can dope, and any exploits are derisory.

Thanks JSG and Tuart for the clarification. I thought it wasn't Dan Tek, and I remembered the article about him living with Evans' old landlords but I didn't know any other Dan's in the team so it was puzzling.

i prefer it to the old one as like i mentioned else where found in the dauphine the yellow green was confusing in the helicopter shots

i quite like the jersey but have to say my first instinct was it is a little bit movistar.

guess we shall have to wait and see how it looks in the race

They better not have green helmets!

This year's peloton has been an improvement for telling teams apart and I don't want to go backwards.

Nice to see them bringing Bolle back to the front of the peloton.

For fans of a certain age they were iconic in the 90s.

Meyer is doing the Oceania Championships lol... Didn't think that was possible (registered under his Andorra club). May not even make it back for Pais Vasco at this rate.
