going to a coldplay concert would be something I kept more of a secret than any riders going to my team.

If you're expecting BBM to not be boring, you're in for a disappointment

So true

Makes me think of the British show Peep Show: "People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people."

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Julian Kern joins AG2R on a two-year deal. They are really improving their team this year.

 

[Bye Bye Bicycle]

That's some really great news. Kern was considering retirement at the end of last year. Now he has a WT contract.

 

[Jason_Mercier]

Good team Ag2r. Pozzovivo and Betancur for the GTs, also the colombian will be a contender for the classics with Romain Bardet. Good squad for the sprints with Belletti, Hutarovich and Apollonio. Here's an Ag2r fan for the next year

First they need to change those horrendous jerseys

First they need to change those horrendous jerseys

And their see-through shorts.
I just hate that you can see the riders naked a*s*s through the shorts

Why are you looking at the riders' behinds?

 

[jyhjyh]

Why are you looking at the riders' behinds?

Because the cameras focus on them

 

[Michele]

Cameramen are perverts?

 

[Fidolix]

Not a word. How boring.

 

[al_pacino]

The second rest day is where the action is at.

 

[Afrank]

ag2r seem to be determined to not be the last world tour team without a victory next season, and get more victories than their current total of 5. Good to see that they are taking steps to do this.

 

[ILovecycling]

Not a word. How boring.

Ye,its depressing

When is Joseph Dombrowski going to announce where he will ride next year? I know it's either going to be Sky or BMC, but I wonder when we will know for sure.

I figure it will be an english speaking team, but I haven't heard any rumors except Sky. Any links?

Edit(Hoping for Garmin...JV is good at signing young talent)

Liquigas was also rumored, but it will probably be Sky. Daniel Benson said through twitter that he was going to Sky and Dombrowski has "liked" Sky's facebook page, so...

Personally I think Liquigas would be a much better team for him, in a interview earlier in the year his manager said they were looking for a team that could develop him best, and look what Liquigas did with Sagan.

 

[DominicDecoco]

Hm, not liking this thread as a sticky.

I'm the only one that overlooks sticky-threads bar stage threads?

 

[Jason_Mercier]

Sky is the worst choice i think. Prefer Liquigas, wich need a leader for Gts. But we'll see, Dombrowski is a super big talent, best young in Gila, Utah and Colorado in his first season as pro. Amazing. Amazing Giro Bio beating the best promise climber of Italy, Fabio Aru. Awesome attack in Terminillo, ill never forget when he dropped Ilnur Zhakarin. Literally Joseph destroyed the russian guy. And good ascent at the Passo Gavia with huge differences (dont know if this is the correct word) Incredible performances. So i think the team he' ll choose wouldnt be a problem for his development and career.
