It's all over the web: T eam RadioShack's final roste r. Below is my take on how they'll do. You may disagree with some of my conclusions, though why you would do that, I have no idea. ;) At first glance you might think Disco is back. Many of these boys are Disco alumni from one year or another: Armstrong, Beppu, Brajkovic, Leipheimer, Li, Paulinho, Popovych, Rubiera, and Vaitkus. But that's only 9...

They don’t make it to the Hotitude threads, they’re not the subject of debate when we talk about Grand Tours, but they’re there every day ‘driving the peloton’, ‘hammering out the rhythm’… choose your favourite cliché.

The Astana drama continues Yeah, I know we're probably all sick of it by now, but I thought it was interesting that Kloden, Popovych, Rast and Zubeldia are apparently still under contract with Astana too, although we haven't heard about that as much as the Contador situation.

Unfortunately I saw almost nothing of the U23 race or time trial this year, thanks to generally hectic times, but if it seems unimportant, here is some information to make you (OK, me) wish we'd watched it.
