US Patent Exploding Cyclist said:I'm liking this team as well. They are going to have some flexibility with team tactics in GTs as the article said, especially if the Cunego, Brajkovic, and Horner rumors turn out to be true. It'd be nice to see these guys have free reign in some races.
I just hope they have a better color scheme next year.

And why would Hushovd pull for Schlecklette's group when Sastre was behind?The Hitch said:But remember, Hushovd had reason to refuse to work with Cancellara. The previous day self apointed general director of the tour Fabian, decided to neutralise the stage, preventing Hushovd who had managed to get up in the stage, the chance of taking points on cavendish - who was much further back. I wasnt surprised the next day that Thor refused to work with Cancellara.
I wonder how much more time saxo could have put into contador if hushovd worked with them.
silly Canc. neutralising the stage even after the Schlecks had caught back on. Never get involved when its not your fight ie the green jersey battle at the tour. You can only come off bad.
goggalor said:FYI, Thor's "didn't do ****" quote is him responding to questions of whether Cervelo will get invites to the GTs next year without Sastre, especially the Tour, not just some random swipe.

Hushovd did some pulling for Sastre after his solo-breakaway on stage 17 last year, before Sastre launched his incredibly weak attack and ended up losing 5 minutes or something like thatmeandmygitane said:Reminds me of Stage 12 (I think it was) when Petacchi pulled for Cunego into Côte de la Croix-Neuve, when did you ever see Hushovd pull for Sastre?
hfer07 said:damn- Geox is doing some serious recruitment!!! Sastre & now Menchov.... Cunego better hurry up and sign before the team's management set their eyes in someone else....

Ryaguas said:Geox will be a team to see... If Horner joins the team I will say "WTF!"... Is Horner in love enough with The Hog to don't leave a team that is already folding?
mmmm Next year:
Carlos for Il Giro - Vuelta?
and
Menchov for Tour - Vuelta?
Could that be?
If that is so, Carlos have really big chances to win Il Giro... in case that El Pistolero makes Tour - Vuelta...
boardhanger said:Menchov will do the Giro cause GEOX is Italian company. Sastre will Lieutenant him with options available if they should open for Sastre.
Ryaguas said:If that is so, Carlos have really big chances to win Il Giro....
Ryaguas said:Nop... I don't think so... This year Menchov learned that If He wants to be in the fight for Le Tour (Which is his main target also for the Team) He doesn't have to ride Il Giro... so Il Giro will be open for Carlos... and in La Vuelta they can ride together with some options in the GC...
boardhanger said:............mmhhhhh 3 grand tours for already booked according to you. Tell me where do you get your info??
