I couldn't even bring myself to watch TDF last year. That glorious race is becoming such a silly circus...
If we ever want to field a strong American team, we are going to have to put a great deal of development into our juniors and espoirs. Development takes money. With the nasty PED smear on cycling, big name sponsors are understandably leary. Who would want to spend development money on young riders or put a couple of million into a team only to have the star test positive with the sponsors name blazed across his chest?
