EisenAndy has moved to Wordpress for a while, to see if it is better than Blogger: and I took the opportunity to get the name Schleckland back, yay!
The address is schleckland.wordpress.com
But I'm keeping Eisen Andy going for now, as it has the best SEO!
Click here for an easy jump to the new blog, see what you think of it.
I know, amazing news, you heard it first here - Frankie has gone to Rabobank. I have no idea if Andy is going as well, or any of the others: at this time, only Frankie is confirmed.
He has also, in movement of great solidarity with his new team, changed his nationality to Dutch.
What am I talking about? Tour de Frank - sorry, Tour de France - stage 7 results, as shown by Eurosport who, you would assume, know what they are talking about:
There you go, Frank Schleck (NED) of team RAB. You heard it here first.
Other, less fictitious news: d'aaaw, my pet Honorary Schlecklander Teejay van Garderen, or "Bum-fluff" as he is known, has lost the white jersey of Young Riders, due to coming in 3' 8" down on that incredibly steep finish. He's had to hand it over to Rein Taaramae (or Rain Tiramasu, as I think of him). And of course Fabu has lot the yellow jersey, but we always knew that he would, and at least he now holds the record for the most days in yellow for someone who hasn't actually won the race.
Meanwhile, somewhere in Luxembourg:
Andy, slumped on the sofa, legs stretched out in front of him: "Pfff"
We hear the door opening, there is a gust of fresh air, papers flutter off the table, and Jakob bursts into the room, bringing a warm yellow glow with him. It is as though the sun has come out.
Jakob: "Andy! Dude!"
Andy: (rouses himself with some difficulty) "Jakob?"
Jakob: "Look!" (turns on the spot)
Andy: (reluctantly smiling) "Aaw, dude, you got the yellow."
Jakob: "Yay for me! I did it for Leelu, really."
Andy: (throws a cushion at Jakob) "Don't say that, you'll get in trouble!"
Jakob: "Yeah, right..."
At that moment, Andy wakes up and gazes around the room, disoriented and confused. It was only a dream.... but who knows, a dream that might well be true.
