I dont think anything can undo the damage done by the borat movie. They should have had kazakhstan written on their jersies etc.

Yes, of course it has. It's only logical that the human rights violations of an oppressive dictatorship can be erased by a cycling team.

Also, world war two never happened either. it's all been erased by this fantastic racing :p

you do realise a lot of the Borat film was making fun out of American's and the fact they were stupid enough to believe that is what someone from Kazakstan would be like

Who would have said a couple of decades ago that the USA's greatest cyclist would be riding for a Soviet Republic team, with cyrillic on his jersey.
