    Sky obviously (or are the Murdoch family even worse that an organised crime syndicate?) ;)

    I'd go with Katusha - backed by Russian oil and gas billionaires.

    Or maybe it's Endura and Brian Smith is secretly a Pan-european crime kingpin.

    I can't see Marshall's Pasta being involved in any sort of dodginess somehow.

    Any chance the text could be posted in a post? The blog site is blocked. Is it any different to the normal Inner Ring site?

    Most Italian food companies are fronts for the Mafia (I deduced this from watching the Godfather).
    I believe Ragu control 80% of the Western European Ecstasy business.

    Aren't Marshalls pasta an artisanal british company? Maybe thats what they want me to think. Shit, cycling is like the colourful shiny face of the sordid criminal underworld. Maybe this is why i found a finger in a can of napolina plum tomatoes.

    Ragu is used to dispose of the toxic residues from laundering agricultural diesel, hence the red colour. Mama Dolmio is the lynchpin of the ecstacy business.
