    Yeah, he at least appeared to say he has a contract with Sky for next year, but even the Colombian guys on twitter were confused by what he actually meant.

    Movistar have reportedly offered a contract to Nairo's 22 year old brother.

    Dayer is his name and has impressed in U23 Spanish races.

    Him and his bro together would be unreal. Like the Schleck`s but better. Will lend a very nice feel to the racing.

    Sorry to be pedantic, but why the apostrophe on Schlecks?

    One should never apologise for pedantry.

    You are right there is no need for it here.

    It's not even an apostrophe, it's a grave accent.

    Apostrophe: '
    Grave accent: `

    A grave mistake indeed, he said in a strange accent.

    My apostrophes, I'll get my coat.

    But will they spend the whole race looking for each other? :lol:

    Anyone think there could be a few of the older riders struggling to earn the same money on their next contract? Previous dopers don't seem to be doing it in today's less doping era, which I'm sure will only get stronger as time goes on. ie AC, the Schleck's (sic), Tommy V, Gilbert etc

    The Brit journos have been beating that drum for a while. Everyone else seems to think it's Belkin or Argos.

    Astana is interested in Ten Dam as well.

    So are you stating that Tommy V and Gilbert are dopers (just for clarity in any future legal cases!).

    The booing of team sky at Dutch corner is probably enough to put him off that one! (and the fact they wouldn't let him share all his tour rides on strava!)

    And Andy (or are we are referring to Johnny & Gaby Shleck's elder son)?

    Kittel claiming that this isn't quite true. He's still assessing his options... interesting...

    After his recent comments the only reason I can see Uran moving would be if Froome is going to stay at Sky as leader. So based on that I'm going to say Wiggins is on the move or retiring!

    Wiggins won't move.

    Haha good one.

    His dribble still marks the course for people wanting to recreate the 2013 Tour for themselves.
