Not sure if everyone has been keeping up with this, but it was announced last year Jacob has signed with Riis for 3 years. But it turns out he didn't actually sign. It now seems he's asking for more money as he thinks he's worth more etc etc.

Guess who he's been getting advise from? Yep, his training parter, Mikey "Chicken" Rasmussen
Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Rabo might be interested, amongst others. He's at that stage where he promises a lot and even if he doesn't realise the hope, he can cash in. Clearly the uncertainty over replacement sponsors is playing its part.

    Talking of interest, you'd think Fuglsang would see the interest in finding a new training partner.

    I am pretty sure I read in the Chicken's actual interview that appeared in the Danish paper that Fuglsang lives 5km away, but refuses to pick up the phone to him anymore because of his repuation.

    Was a machine translation but I will see if I can dig it out.

    Edit- The original interview CFA linked to on twitter has now gone.
