CyclingIQ: After taking out today’s Tour of Taihu Lake third stage, Alexander Serebryakov (Team Type 1 – Sanofi) is one victory shy of his 10th UCI AsiaTour stage win for 2012. The talented 25 year old Russian sprinter has not yet revealed who he will ride for in 2013 but, after such an impressive season, a leap up to the ProTeam ranks isn’t inconceivable.

Cyclismas: It’s been almost three weeks since USADA released their reasoned decision in their case against Lance Armstrong which included an avalanche of evidence into the doping practices on the Texan’s various teams. With the lack of top level racing in the days since then, it’s unsurprising that much of the cycling news emerging has included the reactions of people within the sport, not least the cyclists themselves.
