Mixed news for Tmobile. Ullrich won the 1st stage of the Tour de suisse from a small group and after 3 stages holds yellow. The stage win being his first win...
I agree, the Tour will not be as good sans Vino, I was looking forward to his performance. Also, I'm a bit surprised at Ullrich leading Suiss. I haven't had...
... Ullrich with the small team last year surely did quite a job last year. The real deal really starts in the 2nd half of the last week of the TdF. This is...
I read where Tobias Steihauser was injured in the Tour de Suisse. Is he hurt badly? He's not the talent of Vino but he is a strong domestique that can keep...

Its such a shame. I always thought that he was one of the good guys. Personally, I hope he gets banned for life. Not only has he cheated himself and his...
