Lidl-Trek (no longer Radioshack-Leopard Trek)

i bet there is a thought that never leaves the hog's head: "why oh why did i have to ruin the good thing i had going with contador"

Hm, has anyone watched the race on Eurosport? Andy distinctly said that performing well in the Ardennes initially hadn't been planned. Everything is under control. We will be flying in July. Fasten your seat belts.

If you me "flying", as in crash and burn, then OK.

The nightmare continues.
Shambolic performance; just about the worst of the classics month.

Looking good on the front with 70kms to go. Looking awful and out the back, as soon as the racing starts.

The bigger the star, the bigger their black hole, when they go boom.

JB is realling the best DS... He can not win nothing anymore.

 

[pugdog]

It's astoninshing they way they ride.

Look at Europacar today. Rode the race with aggression & respect.

RSNT have got so very big problems.

Europecar clinic material.

it's easy to be the most succesful ds when you have the best riders and the most money. but that's something else then being the best ds.

 

[El Pistolero]

He's not a bad DS, just not the best either.

Other than dreadful Schleck performances this year and losing Canc to injury they've done a respectable job, 8th overall in world tour points. A healthy Canc would have moved them up a few slots

Can the schleck time trialing really have gotten worse? One has to wonder if Schleck's terrible form is an elaborate ruse.

I think most of the riders are far from their form of last year. Decent performances by Gallopin, Horner, Machado and Sergent but nothing exceptional either...

Rumours say he was looking for a highway to "step in front of a speeding truck"

Well you have to admit this is the typical Spring result(s) from a Joe-Han managed team. Yes, a highlight or two but nothing dramatic (winning a Classic), you all know its le Tour or nothing, everything else is just training or pack filler for them. Can't say I'm all to surprised by their lack of results, and wouldn't surprise me if they are pulling the Schleckchut on purpose.

That would be it. It's all on purpose. They don't need UCI points & the Shlecks are happy not winning.

What are you on?

The one tactic the Master tactician is missing is a certain Doctor in Italy. He can't be contacted because the poliza are still watching him.

The whole project is a disaster start to finish.

End of story.

Bwa ha ha ha!!!! Don't be a reedonkulous troll. Take a look at Velonews pre race with these 2 clowns here. Not only do they sound like an old version of SNL, but they clearly drummed the press up that they'd do well.

I would say massive fail.

If either of these tools places in the top 5 in July, all Wreck threads will need to be immediately moved to the clinic.

It is just one massive fail. These 2 dweezles need to wake up.

Just a teaser quote ... “We are not here to do a Granfondo; we are here to win,” Andy said. His brother added, “It’s not that we are just here in this nice hotel for the free food and laundry.”

Fine Food and Laundry

The Schleck brothers should have stayed in the hotel under their comfy blanket drinking fine wine and food. Race conditions were the same for all the cyclists. Race to Win with passion or get off the bike and stay home.

Lets keep our fingers crossed for wettest, coldest July in France

The good doctor is there, just because he's under watch doesn't mean he still can't help. Ever hear of sneaker net or passing info along through others? I'm sure he's still watching the races keeping a tab of "his" winners and comparing notes with his fellow doctors of his kind.

He must be shaking his head with Andy thinking "but there's no drug that can fix being scared of the rain"....... "I can increase their watts, their strength, their cadance to power ratio but if the boy won't stay on his bike then my drugs won't work"....
