Once again I'm quite impressed!

I have two words to say. Alberto Contador. This kid is gonna become a record setter in the future. He once again showed his incredible abilities on today's I mean yesterday's stage. He continuously attack Rasmussen on the second and last climbs of the day. Not only could you start to see that he wasn't tiring even after stage 14's win. Not only does this young kid deserve to win the white jersey he should also convince Johan Bruyneel's strategy and make him their GC man. Even though Levi is not out yet Alberto deserves it after his incredible recent stages. Now all the riders can get their rest day and recover after such a tough past two days. Also I have an update on my new addition to the cyclist blog, iRide will be receiving a lot of pictures from the writers of the blog from their trip to Louisville. Feel free to check it out in the near future.

Discovery's Team sponser? and the Tour de Suisse

Well Tour de Suisse has concluded with a win by Vladimir Karpets. He beat out his teammate Vladimir Efimkin by 1 minute and 41 seconds to gain the overall lead and took the victory. Efimkin dropped from first overall to a disappointing 5th after controlling the lead for so long. Fabian Cancellara took the win of the stage today with a twenty second lead to Andreas Kloden. There is a lot of talk surrounding the sponsorship of Discovery Team. As of the end of this year Discovery Channel's 3 year deal with the Discovery team terminates. Johan Bruyneel has said they are not worried about the sponsorship. They has been some gossip that the sponsor may come from China due to the ties that the team has made there recently. They have just got a new rider from the country. If I hear anything I will update all of you on it immediately.
