Saturday morning miscellaneous stuff... I read in a New Zealand paper that Hayden Roulston said he walked from Discovery because he didn’t want to race in Europe anymore. He said he would like to get on an American team and ride American races only. Didja hear that, Frankie Andreu and United Pro Cycling Team?

Threshold Sports CEO, David Chauner, announced that there would, indeed, be a race in Philly in 2006. The Pro Cycling Tour Championship of the Americas will be June 4th in Lancaster, the PCT Invitational will be on June 8th (venue to be announced) and the new Philadelphia International Championship, along with the Women’s Liberty Classic, will be in Philly on Sunday, June 11th. All races will have UCI international status. Title sponsor is not yet announced, but there is strong support from the city of Philadelphia and the Governor of PA...

Reason for the photo of Rubens Bertogliati, Tour 2005? I just read a press release that said there is a new, additional sponsor for the Saunier Duval-Prodir team. Squirt Lube, an American company, makes the Squirter (lube)and the Sweatsucker (headband). I keep playing around with new team names like Saunier Duval-Prodir-Squirt or Saunier Duval-Prodir-Squirter-Sweatsucker... Fit that on a lycra behind...
