Hey folks,

So Andy Schleck is really talking the hype up about reaching the top step of le Tour this year. He is now with the Hog, and he is obviously 'motivated'. His shiro, Aran, is talking about working on all sorts of different techniques to make him faster (one citing - http://cyclingtime.com/en/1825/article/Schlecks and Rolland Must Improve Time Trialing for 2012 Tour). So, is anyone getting the feeling that good old AS is going to step up le dopage 2-3 notches and pull a Pharmstrong this year? Or a Michael Ras TT?

Just curious.

I think anyone on the Hog's tour squad is expected to follow a regimen of hog fuel in paper bags. But does he have many cheats that Barney didn't use? I don't know that Andy will be taking too many unfamiliar steps. Maybe a return to the preparation he used in 2010?

No, what I mean is that I think Andy will go full ***. I mean 2010 x 10.
