i luv the transfers,rumours etc. Re Mattias Skjelmose i wouldnt blame him for being pissed off .it will be ashame if he leaves Trek ...the rumours about them chasing Gall dont help at all. Gee hasnt been impressive. Not sure if the lidl control has been a good thing. Thankfully Mads and Lucinda are there. Shame to see Shirin leave.

Regarding the scandal, I think you’re confusing the WC with national champs where the federation can ban riders who don’t participate. If I remember right, Remco was in doubt for the Tour or something like that because of it but yes, in that case his license wouldn’t be valid and there’d be nothing his team could do about it to register him.

Agreed, around a minute. He’s going to gave to find something to surprise others in the mountains.
