Monday Musette – Vuelta, Garmin-Cervelo, and Metaphors
Here’s this week’s Monday Musette. 1. The 2010 Vuelta Espana kicked-off this weekend with a midnight team time trial through the streets of Seville. By the end of the evening, Mark Cavendish was wearing the red jersey as leader of the race, after his HTC-Columbia team took the stage victory. For HTC-Columbia, the win was … Continue reading

Weekend Preview – ENECO, Melinda, and Plouay
Here’s a quick run-down of this weekend’s major events: 1. The 2010 ENECO Tour continues this weekend with two longish stages in Belgium and the Netherlands. Saturday’s 214.4km stage from St. Lievens-Houtem (Belgium) to Roermond (Holland) should be a good day for the sprinters, with few real difficulties on tap. Look for Robbie McEwen and … Continue reading

Tyler Farrar became the first back-to-back winner of the Vattenfall Cyclassics with his win Sunday. Edvald Boasson Hagen and Andre Greipel took second and third, rounding-out what I had suspected would constitute the final podium (albeit in different positions). The race went as planned for Garmin-Transitions—the team timed is … Continue reading

Weekend Preview – Vattenfall Cyclassics
The Pro Tour continues its summer run with the 15th running of Hamburg, Germany’s Vattenfall Cyclassics. Formerly, the HEW Cyclassics, the race was a World Cup event from 1998 until joining the Pro Tour in 2005. The relatively flat race usually favors riders strong enough to make it over the small climbs that speckle the … Continue reading

For the One Hundredth Time, It’s Not “The Sprinter’s Jerseyâ€!
Here’s a special contribution from Jeremy over at Tears for Gears. Shortly after the Tour concluded last month, he contacted me with a question about the possible effects of Alessandro Petacchi’s disqualification from this year’s Tour following allegations of PFC use. A short conversation ensued via email, and before I knew it, Jeremy had graciously … Continue reading
