White is the New Black

[-Adam-]

Whats great about this, is all the people that have paid around £150 or so for the black kit, will now have to fork out another wedge for the new lot! Haha, love it!

On a related note, Dan Fleeman of Cervelo was seen aboard an unpainted, nameless frame at the weekend. One can only assume some kind of new prototype...

Check out the new Astana website.... opens with Armstrong in Livestrong Kit and talk of the revolution that starts in France on the 4th July.
Then the body pf the site is now primarily black and yellow as opposed to 'team' colours.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the team in a new 'Livestrong' kit/name at the team presentation or immediately following the Tour.
After all an American firm with interests in Kazakhstan is responsible for the new funding.

To me the Tour is really lacking some personalities to compete for the Yellow. No one is particularly fun and all the interest is in the possible contest with Astana. Looking forward for the new generation being contenders - Lokqvist(?) etc

You don't need any more white kit Sean!

Agree Steve, as soon as the older mob who've come back post ban clear off the better. Hopefully there is hope with the likes of Lok..... (yeah I don't know how to spell it either ) and they won't turn out to be naughty boys too.

Biggest problem with the Tour for me is the way it is so formulaic these days, both in route and style of riding most of the time. Giro knocks spots off it and has done for many years. Pro season is Northern European Classics through to Giro for me, after that I watch with a bit of interest in case something exciting happens but it's a lot rarer that it does once you get to June.

I still have nightmares from Majorca when you stepped out in those Assos shorts .
