That would be me. I'm currently wiping all that egg off my face and swallowing it all, yolk included. Tasty.
I maintain that sending Meeus to the Tour based on hitting form 5 minutes ago is sketchy as hell. It means they don't trust the almighty 'process', whatever it was.
The good news is Lipowitz had a great level in the Dauphiné and I expect him and Rog to work well together. They get on fine and I read recently an article which pretty much detailed how Rog, Lipo and Dan Bigham were pretty much spearheading the Tour hopes for this summer.
It's just the rest of the team that's misfiring or hitting purple patches at irregular (and unpredictable) intervals.
