Yet in the start list for the Tour Down Under, they are clearly listed as being an American team.
Whoops!
Or is this more sinister than it appears?
Was the merger really a take-over after all?
Sharp-eyed Schlecklanders will spot from the tabs in that screen-cap that I was also blogging at the same time - well, yes, here I am writing and researching simultaneously, it's what I do - and that I also have the UCI site open.
Aaargh, my soul, my soul! Actually, it's ok, it's only reading the rules that sucks out your soul, just checking up on the teams is not so bad. So here I go, wish me luck, and if I'm never seen again, I leave my blog and all the Schlecklanders to... *fades off into the distance...*
Aha! It's all right, I'm back safely from the depths of the UCI site, and according to them, team RadioShack Nissan (no mention of Trek of course) are indeed a LUX team, so that's ok.
Phew!
And now we know who's going to the Tour - Leelu and Nim are lucky, they're getting Jean Vois. We did have him here in the UK for a very, very short time *pulls grumpy face* for the Tour of Britain, but on one of the first few days he broke a finger really badly, and had to go home. Boo! Poor boy!
Let's hope this season has fewer injuries than last year, eh?
