No one, apparently.

Just 21 teams last year? Maybe that's ASO trying to placate Saur-Sojasun after their tour non-invite.

Hi, forgive me for the fairly green question but I was wondering is there a website or page from CN that shows the cycling calendar? I've noticed new threads for the Bayern-Rundfart (sp?), Tour of Belgium, Tour de Suisse and now the Dauphinè, and then there's aso the Ras. So I would just like an idea of the various races that are up and coming - cheers!

Totally off topic, but not IMO worthy of a thread on it's own. Vacansoleil has been added as a bonus team for the Tour de Suisse.

Vacansoleil was at the back of my mind when I posted. Hopefully if LA gets done before the TdF Vac will get the vacancy created. They deserve more than just a Suisse place.

who have sky replaced?

2009 edition only had 19 teams last year.

Add Saur, Cervelo, Radioshack, and Sky and subtract BMC (from last year) gives 22 teams for this edition.
