If you don't accommodate age, at 18 you can do anything, at 25 you wish you hadn't, by 30 you feel really rough, 35 you need a week to recover, come 40 the doctor is giving a you the serious face. :)

Nice :D

If he finds the right balance he will still do well imho, and if not he remains a huge asset as a mentor to the team, which while not a physical victory, it's a victory through transference none the less.

We will see

Photographer after posting photo: "Sh*t, I forgot to crop out Bjarne. Maybe people won't notice."

So Contador is going to do the Tour/Vuelta double next season. Lets get the debate going on what the grand tour teams will be for next season assuming Contador will lead the tour along with Kreuziger and Rogers, I think it will be Roche and Majka for the Giro with Roche probably doing the Ardennes also as leader.

I might be clutching at straws but Contador's 2011 Giro still gives me hope going forward. I know people will claim that the competition was not the best but I still think he destroyed it. False optimism possibly....:)

I think we'll see Contador, Hernandez, Paulinho, Tosatto, Bennati, Rogers, Kreuziger and Roche in the Tour team. Mørkøv has a good chance for the last spot I believe. Unless they sign some other good guys, then perhaps they'll save Hernandez for la Vuelta and send Nico and Roman to the Giro.
