When a blog on Skysports let slip that the British team of Bradley
Wiggins
and Mark Cavendish had made a presentation to ASO ahead of this year’s
Tour de France, it raised eyebrows – especially when the blog mentioned
that part of the presentation was to ensure they ‘won't get any nasty
surprises’.

For the first time in five years, the Schleck brothers will not be

The Beaten Path: "Tire resistance is much more important than
previously thought. For most riders, changing the tires is by far the
biggest improvement they can make to their bikes’ performance. (Aero
wheels will improve your bicycle’s speed by less than 2%, whereas tires
can make a 20% difference.)"
InnerRing:
Andy Schleck is out of the 2012 Tour de France. The news first appeared
this morning in the Luxembourg media with RTL. A press conference has
been called at 4.00pm by Radioshack and this is expected to confirm the

"The Washington Post article, just three paragraphs in, states that
USADA has collected blood samples, “fully consistent with blood
manipulation including EPO use and/or blood transfusions” from 2009 and
2010. That’s very recent. I wonder if the people who want to “let it
go” are in a state of denial, didn’t really read the article or read it
and ignored a fact that ruined their version of their Armstrong
reality?"

Renshaw: My next race starts on Thursday, Ster ZLM Toer and I'm hoping
to be in the mix. I've been doing a lot of work on my sprinting and
climbing lately. There's always a couple of hard stages there for a
Gilbert style rider but I am hoping for a couple of sprint chances also.

Lance Armstrong faces sanction from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency and has
been banned from triathlon competition until the resolution of the
investigation. The Washington Post reported Wednesday that USADA has
sent the seven-time Tour de France champion and others a 15-page letter
outlining the allegations that stem from his run with the U.S. Postal
Service and Discovery team between 1998 and 2005, as well as his
comeback in 2009-2010.

There was a time, not very long ago, when the average fan’s perception
of Cadel Evans was not entirely favorable. Clearly a huge talent,
Evans’ demeanor suggested a lack of maturity, a tendency to whine and
the distinct impression that the biggest prizes would elude him.
Perhaps it was the influence of the late Aldo Sassi, perhaps it was
winning a World Championship, perhaps it was getting married, but Evans
finally got himself over the hump.
