Cav gone to OPQS

On the cards really given Sky's real targets.
Did Cav have to buy himself out or did they pay the compensation for him, haven't checked the news yet?

Rabobank: gone

Seems to have been released free.

Re Rabobank. With Leontien.nl going as well, that's the two strongest womens teams no longer in the peloton.

So Rabobank gone......what did I say on the previous page?

I await the UCI announcement on Monday.

But announced today that his buddy Eisel is staying at Sky.

Sadly the current crop are being punished for what happened 10-15 years ago, whether guilty or not. You can understand the standpoint from the sponsors POV but this is absolutely not the way to encourage people to speak out now. We'll be back to square one before you know it if we're not careful.

If it did go back to square one would that be a bad thing?

Doping at the levels we saw at US Postal may be behind us but those guys from that era are now DS's and Team Managers. Dopers managing riders!

The UCI are still here with no idea what to do who played a part in the lies.

Rabobank are honoring next season's contracts , but will not be associated. So will be wearing plain white jerseys with no advertising.

Also rumour is that skoda are reducing their commitment.

Last night was the livestrong anniversary. Lance told the crowd its been a tough 2 weeks. He's had better and he's definitely had worse.

Now I know the chance of dying from cancer is classes as bad, but to me its almost as if he's saying so what if I cheated. Compared to cancer its small beans.

The continued arrogance and refusal to accept any responsibility is disgusting. Especially I. View of the lives that will be destroyed as sponsors take away thei money from the now heavily tainted sport.

There's an article by Gesink on the cycling news website that really puts the impact of this into perspective.
