Are you sure, I thought it was all still controlled by the Burkes, I know he owns a stake in Sram but thought Trek are far too big for him to have anything in it?

Which rider do people think is going to completely take us all by surprise and go top 5 or podium who isn't one of the big names?

I also wouldn't be suprised to see one of the new young guns being signed by Riis, someone like Kreuziger or Boassen Hagen? Bernad Eisel's a shoe in if you ask me, with him being led by Sparticus and O'Grady Cav would be worried.

Enter a certain Mr P Taylor.

Hi, I think I've managed to break the thread on my front quick release skewer so now both the nut and the qr lever just turn without undoing, any ideas for getting the wheel off? thanks in advance

I would suggest two approaches here 1) Interval training - find a nice quiet stretch of straight road, get the bike in the biggest gear you have and essentially go as fast as you can for two minutes, have a 1 minute break then do it again, repeat this for 5 times then move to 1 minute sprints...

Anyone agree with Millar in Pink after the TTT?

erm, I really don't remember him winning in 93,95 or 96???
