This also strikes me as very odd. For me it is quite simple. If I send some one an email and after a reasonable amount of time I get no answer, I can make the following reasonable assessment. Either (1) the person never received the email because I sent it to the wrong address or their computer...

This also struck me as very odd and I am still trying to make sense of it. Unless I have missed something, I was not aware (and I presume it was not public knowledge) that Tondo had tried on several occasions to get onto the slipstream team, as such to publicly apologise does not make sense as...

As we all know Alp d'huez is often a tactical battle with riders not going flat out for the duration of the climb, so for real comparative purposes, it is probably necessary to compare the times for the first five riders on the stage over the years and not just who won, as this will give you an...

I have been following the tweets of various pro-riders in the last few hours commenting on the alleged cause of Ricco's hospitalisation. Although I am no fan of Ricco, the double standard that is being applied here is outrageous - especially given that some of those commenting have either...
