People say the team presentations are dull but i like them ( i like anything which promotes cycling).

Any chance of a recording of this surfacing later?

That 50 minute Giro video doesnt sound half bad either.

Maybe Transitions Tyler is this year's Garmin GC secret weapon like Hesjay and Wiggins in 09/10. :eek:
Rumour has it that he has stopped putting sugar in his coffee and started eating gluten-free food, so you never know!

Beyer, Butler, and Barton should start a law firm.

Garmin want Giro success



I understand what they mean - ie a couple of stages suit him well, but the giro course - got to be joking

Maybe because the mountains give him a good excuse to drop out after the second week and build his form for the tour?

(although it does the same for the other sprinters too)

I am interested in what Cam Meyer can do. It is his 3rd giro now.The last giro he was decent in the final tt. I would like to see him in a breakaway in one of the mountain stages.
