UCI regulations forbid 'official' notification of anything prior to Sept 1. Teams and riders can be fined for doing so. Doesn't mean that the info isn't leaking out there, because it is. But nothing "official" has come out and won't until Sept 1. But radioshack has said they have an interest in riders for the classics. We don't know who else they have signed or are trying to sign, but they don't seem to be just building a TdF team for Lance. Only time will tell, but they seem to be trying to build for a longterm future, as well as to help Lance compete for the podium in 2010. And Taylor Phinney has said he isn't ready to move up from the U23 development team, though it seems that is the future intent.
I've never been so anxious for September 1st to roll around.![]()
