    Rate the 2015 Tour route!

    This is no TDF .... short stages , no time trail... there should be at least some 250 km stages. Not all of course but 3 or so. Endurance is part of a grand tour. And dope has nothing to do with it. They dope to win not because the distance was too long etc. This is a tour de l,avenir version...

    Vino bought the 2010 LBL?

    That ain't true .... not even close.... Recently with Gilbert its got a boost. I the walloon area people riding their bike for pleasure is rather rare and even rarer to go to the market or home /work. they got a lot less viewers( even relative) then cycling got in flanders on TV. They have...

    Better GT rider in their primes: Evans vs Nibali

    Strange that people talk about the better competition fot Evans... i mean Andy Scleck. the guy who rode grupetto all year and then turns in a world class climber for 3 weeks in july. In my opinion Andy schleck without the '' right"' preparation is max a top 15 rider. It s a shame we did not...

    Eneco Tour 2014 (2.WT), 11.08 - 17/08

    In a mass sprint things like that can happen but here there was space enough to pass and Wynandts was just doing his work. It was a mad body check you rather expect in american football. He should have been DQ and got a warning. It s the intention that counts and the fact that there was no...

    100 procent correct ... Wynants has no fault he was just defending himself from ridiculous intimidation. They should give terpstrat a last warining ... next time he can join Riccardo Ricco....

    Eneco Tour 2014 (2.WT), 11.08 - 17/08

    Then you are just as mad as Terpstra... this was a lot worse then even Steel did. Cycling is no american football. So for you it s ok to just ram a guy whos pulling in front....I like the rider Terpstra but his behaviour is just Madness. Its not the first time and he should be teached a lesson...

    Eneco Tour 2014 (2.WT), 11.08 - 17/08

    They should take Terpstra out of the race and suspend him for months....This is just madness and unacceptable.

    Tour de Pologne 2014 (2.WT), 03.08 - 09.08

    Why? A 25 km time trial should always be part of al week long stage race. A time trial is more interesting then all those flat sprintstages combined.

    Transfers and Rumours 2014 > 2015

    Thats huge for a relatively new brand( and a low nr of employees).... it would be great to see the annual accounts. this line is funny . Hushovd, gilbert, Evans , Phinney , Van Garderen all hugely overpaid in comparison with other teams. For comparison..... i a suprised by the...
