Yeah, I heard Discovery weren't going to have a team next year, but might they not rethink that after first and third in this year's tour?

Apparently, Discovery channel is pulling sponsorship at the end of the season. Johan has approached several companies about sponsorship and has not found a new sponsor yet. With two men in the top 3 at the Tour, you'd think it wouldn't be so tough, but with a Tour where so many guys were pulled for doping, a lot of companies are not so interested in cycling teams!
I hope they pull it off.

wow, what a team to watch for! Can't wait! It's funny b/c one of the guys I ride with just got his slipstream kit that he ordered. He is by no means, no David Millar in it

Slipstream shoes
Have any of you noticed their shoes?? They have teeny tiny argyle on the shoes, too!
Jonathan Vaughters said the argyle will be bolder if they get a Tour bid next year. Wonder what color it will be then?"When I'm on my bike I forget about things like age. I just have fun." Kathy Sessler

I've been out of the loop for a few days, but I've been following this rumor for a couple of weeks. Is it official? Does anyone have a link to the announcement? Originally Posted by Regina

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Team Slipstream (Powered by Chipotle) is the team to watch! And on that note, I think I'm gonna have me a Chipotle burrito for lunch today. Gotta support those team sponsors!"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter.
