Tour de France Squad updates and No. #1 jersey?

Got some news from Velonews Today. The Tour de France Officials have decided to not issue the number 1 jersey out this year. Over the past years the jersey number had been given to the previous years winner. Since there has been no decision yet on if Floyd Landis will be given the title or if the runner-up Oscar Pereiro will be. According to Velonews Oscar will be given the lowest number that is available. But on some better news I have got some more team rosters for the Tour.

Pereiro's doping? or something like that

Well there is no races that I felt were worth updating you on but I have got some more gossip. Today's gossip surronds Oscar Pereiro's talked about defualt win of the Tour de France if Landis is found guilty. Now Oscar has been underfire recently for if he is award the title of winner. People all say that Floyd was doping because of his tremendous comeback in the mountains, not saying that Floyd is not guilty or is guilty I'm just pointing out facts, people started to say he was doping. Well here is some news Oscar had a 30 minute comeback as well during the tour to become the runner-up. Not only did he do the a simular unthinkable comeback as Landis did its just people blew Landis's comeback out of proportion. It leads me to find that the Europeans are being very hypocritical of any American rider. They are just mad that USA has dominated the beloved tour. I'm thinking that Oscar has been juicing a little as well. But this whole topic is very shady so I'll leave it at that and let you develop your own opinion. But something must be done to end this on going problem within the cycling world.
