But come on US-powers-that-be, it's mindset! We have great and committed athletes, but they need support and encouragement, not bosses who say we're never going to get there. Look at Daniel Holloway and Shelley Ol… Continue

Columbia's Tony Martin will face a mountain battle to retain his white jersey

Germany's Tony Martin is hoping toemulate compatriot Jan Ullrich by wearing the Tour de France's white jersey all the way to Paris as he prepares to defend it through the Pyrenees this weekend. The 24-year-old Columbia rider has held the prize for the best placed U25 rider since the end of Monday's third stage, and finished Thursday's 181.5km race into Barcelona with the shirt still on his back. Martin, whose parents fled Hungary in 1989 after the fall of the Iron Curtain and settled in ...

Arcalis will answer many questions

And it all comes down to Arcalis. After months of speculation, mind-games and maneuvering, the much-anticipated showdown between Lance Armstrong and Alberto Contador will finally unfold on the beyond-category steeps of the Arcalis summit in the principality of Andorra. Or will it? It’s all but impossible to read the tea leaves on what will happen in Friday’s 224km seventh stage. With Astana choking the overall GC, with four riders in the top five and Armstrong just a whisker ...

John Wilcockson: A change of pace for the Tour

There have been very few “down” moments in this 96th Tour de France. All of the first six stages have thrown different challenges at the 180 starters, and it’s a testament to today’s breed of pro cyclists that only three of them have so far dropped out — and all due to crashes. The challenges have included the most difficult opening time trial in race history; three flat stages where fierce wind was a common enemy; the most challenging team time trial for many years; and a hilly ...

Near their European base, the Garmin-Slipstream men go on the attack

It should come as a surprise to no one that Garmin-Slipstream’s David Millar went out on the attack on Thursday’s stage from Girona to Barcelona. Like the majority of the Garmin-Slipstream riders and staff, Millar lives in Girona. In fact the scene at the start area was a family reunion for several Garmin riders that make Girona their European home, including Christian Vande Velde and Dave Zabriskie. Vande Velde’s wife Leah was outside the Garmin bus with their two daughters ...
