    Proof that British cycling is riddled with drugs.

    Is the first caja rural photo Huge John McCarthy?

    I periodically forget who Gilbert rides for now, even though I watched him riding just this week.

    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Surprisingly only IAM and Bahrain since Garmin (Cervelo). Thought he'd been at Orica Greenedge at one point. Aussie bias on my part I suppose.

    Mitch Docker did a good 'life in the peloton' interview with him a while back - worth a listen.

    Or any team that isn't Saeco really.



    I know they kinda are Astana, but Vino and Liberty Seguros just don't go together. Nor do they and Contador for that matter.

    Ok, the big fish. Chris Froome was on Astana, all be it for a very brief period.
