What did you expect? That a couple of Eufemiano's friends suddenly decide to ride clean(er)? Unlikely. |

Also, Gesink rode the Tour at exactly the same level he had in the Tour de Suisse.
Same wattages as the win on the Albula pass as on the Madeleine
While others, mainly Contador and A.Schleck, improved drastically between Dauphine/Suisse and Tour. |

Isn't this quite normal, that GC contenders get better in the tour because their peaking for it instead of the tour de suisse?
Also Contador and Schleck where not giving their all in Dauphine and Suisse, while Gesing rode like a maniac ip the Albula pass.\  |

I'm not discussing anything, I just made a point related to the previous post. The ones who should discuss about it (and eventually complain) are those actually being cheated, ie. the clean cyclists. As long as they do nothing and keep quiet, nothing's gonna change. |

Yes, it's perfectly normal. In fact, if a Tour-contender does very well in Dauphine/Suisse he tends to get burned-out and fail at the Tour.
It's the thing about Gesink that is interresting, although not really surprising. |

Riis Cycling has arranged a press conference tomorrow. They won't say much, but they are likely to announce the new sponsor. |

According to feltet.dk Riis cycling has registered the domain
https://www.saxobank-sungard.com/
New sponser seems to be the old one!
If Rolf Sørensen has 2 minutes lead, and you have 2 minutes lead, Rolf has a bigger lead than you!

All the Big guns that is aiming for the TDF, never give 110% percent at the TdS or Dauphine. They allways save themselfs for the TDF

Riis said the big surprise today is Saxo Bank continuing. No riders being presented today. |
