Another lunchbox joke.
Brilliant isn't it ?
This is the way how you built the truth. Just repeat 1000times and one day it will be true.
Comics by the velocity-sect, to keep the votaries' world in order. :D


PS: Wow, barrus is there. I thought he finally had entered the world insignificance. I think he is on his way to successfully built his own world now, too.

If Voigt wants to stay, then I am certain he will be able to. I know the Schlecks influence has been overrated, but surely they can force that one through without much of an effort.
They will just kick someone els out in the streets. Nothing new about that theese days.

Jens will always have team. He is riding on his own team all the time.

Team Last Ride

I guess if there is one good thing about this whole merger/takeover it is that there will be one less black/blue/white jersey in the peloton next year. Although I've said it before and I'll say it again: I really liked the LEOPARD TREK kit.

It doesn't have to be Mapei-style, but I find them too boring, while Wagner's or other national champs editions looked really good with some more colour on it.

I might even ask Robert for one, when he's back home from Vuelta. :D
Good for cold, sunny days. Black keeps you warm.

CN reports: "One of Leopard Trek's sponsors is Mercedes-Benz Luxembourg, which was taken aback by the arrival of its rival Nissan as new sponsor." Oops! Some "strategic" planning gone wrong here.

They'll just paper things over, put some Nissan stickers on the Mercedes team cars :p I can just imagine the Benzie execs getting all sniffy. Don't blame them. Ha, ha!

That’s just outright wrong. You'd think if you had a cash paying sponsor that you'd talk to them and see maybe if they could provide sponsorship elsewhere in the sport or work hand in hand with Nissan but to leave them high and dry is just terrible.

Did they really need to do that?

I see kloden defiunetely leaving, he doesn;t want to be a helper and neither does horner.

But as usually, Mr.Klöden does neither want to be a captain.
He shows signs of allergetic reactions then.

Certainly possible.

To be fair I think that Nygaard is correct. I seem to remember that when the team started that they were clear that he would be running the team and Becca's business group would be looking for sponsors. Wasn't there talk of all of Becca's business contacts etc?

So now ShleckShack don't have a road captain for next season without radios..

There will be radios anyway I guess. Based on tweet by Vaughters or someone else I don't exactly remember.
