    Jonathan Vaughters guest appearance

    Jonathan, how can it be accepted by the Pro Cycling Council that the UCI via Global Cycling Promotion is setting up WorldTour races? The UCI exists just to regulate sport, not to take part in the organization business, isn't it? Now we have a conflict of interest against the true organizators...

    Is Footon Unbeatable?

    Why do you say that they have 9 nobodies in its Tour line-up when it's completely false? Why do you joke about his lack of results without knowing its 2010 palmares? And I have to take you seriously and not Footon-Servetto team? OK, let's see this thread as a funny one. Of course is better a...

    Is Footon Unbeatable?

    Giampaolo is upset with team's sportive desition, but they let him out of Tour's line-up due to a very hard year of racing (he has ridden since January without stopping). He's riding Tour of Austria.

    Is Footon Unbeatable?

    OK, probably without the ProTour teams' deal with the GT's organizators they shouldn't be riding rhis TdF but I know they WOULD ride the three GT's and they get it. Anything more.

    When did you FIRST start following the Tour de France?

    My first Tour? I think it was 2002. Armstrong-Beloki-Heras in La Mongie, with Béjar's Lance teammate working hard and a exciting rush by The Boss in the final sprint. I think Beloki lost nearly 10-15 seconds in 200 metres. Heras and Beloki were my heros. So, imagine which were my sensations...

    Is Footon Unbeatable?

    I think this kind of jokes are unpleasant. Take this team seriously, please. It's true, the entire team is going to ride her first Tour de France, but it's Matxin's chance, and for me is respectable. You know, Footon-Servetto had seriously problems in order to be able to show a new roster in...

    Nationals

    Javier Ruiz de Larrinaga won his second Championship over the biker José Antonio Hermida (double champion in 2007 and 2008). Without any doubts, the Spanish level in cyclo-cross, nowadays, is not so good. If we look the firsts places on this 2010 Championship, we can that see that too much of...

    Euskaltel-Euskadi 2010

    I like Euskaltel so much. They always fight when he go abroad, sepecially in the Tour de France, where he have to demonstarte on the Pyrenees. Samuel Sanchez is his leader without doubts. But, anything else? Mikel Astarloza was a really good cyclist, but he got a positive in an antidoping...

    Cavendish v. Greipel

    The Cav's planning is a really interesting case. In my opinion, he have to try to win the green jersey in the 2010 Tour de France. If I remember well, he had achieved the record of sprints winned in a TdF last year (six), so this is an "easy" objective for himself. He is faster than Hushovd, so...

    Vuelta 2010

    I'm Spaniard, and I think that the route is so bad. In one hand; for the time trial's kilometres. Only one ITT and the first TTT only over 16 kilometres. But the worst new is that's not the only GT route wich have very little time trial options. La Grande Boucle only have one ITT, and there's...

    Cavendish v. Greipel

    I don't think that Cav will ride all three Grand Tours. I have to say that I've been really surprised when I read that the Man's rider want to ride the Vuelta, so personally I think that, if he wants to drop one of the GT's, the Giro will be his take. According to the Greipel's issue: It's...
