    It's daft. They could make the point of working with a Dutch guy, helping him ride clean unlike those nasty Rabo and Lotto outfits.

    Instead the sign two of the most obvious cheats in the peloton. And guess what, it only took a matter of weeks for this to blow up in their faces.

    You mean he's Italian?

    As long as you can tie a tie properly and do up your top button, I'll forgive the shoes.
