    I wonder if having to plug in the miles during this abnormally cold Winter had anything to do with these injuries. The "old farts" used never expose their legs to daylight unless it was over 18°C. Some of the training camp pictures showed the guys in shorts or with knee warmers in decidedly cool-looking conditions.

    The fact that riders have to start the seasons with such huge mileages combined with an shorter "off-season" musn't help matters much either.
