Valverde is out for doping

The world of cycling just got another big hit . Alegandro Valverde just got a suspended for two year , for his connection with the Operacion Puerto , so Valverde's suspension started Jan 1st 2010 , that means that the races he did this year will be striped from him . Well we hope that this great sport finally will come clean , and the best days still ahead of us ......

THE BIG HITTERS GET READY FOR THE GIRO

The race favorites spoke about their Giro goals ; clearly the Italians will try to do anything to win , some of the favorite Italians talked about their chance . Like Damiano Cunego ( who won the race in 2004) said that he would really like to win his home race again, but with his lack of climbing abilities he might not have a chance, his hopes to repeat the 2004 are slim . Old timers like Simoni and Garzelli also talked about their hopes for this year giro , both of then would like to win as well but their lack of a good team will not help and in the team time trail the race might be over .To tell the truth the only one with any chance is last year 5th place Ivan Basso , (who won the race in 2006) said that he is back in the shape he wanted to be last years ,so he's hopes for this year are pretty high . The other race favorites like Cadel Evans , spoke about their chance , but being realistic, said that they will take the race day by day . In the end we hope to see a great show and a bunch of fireworks on the mountain stages .

THE GIRO IS A GIRO AWAY!!!!!

The Giro is less than a week away , and all the teams are ready , well kind of ready for some . Couple days ago the cycling community found out, that Franco Pelizzotti is not going to be able to race this year edition ; the reason is that his biological passport is inconclusive . What that exactly means? , I'm not sure , but it will not let Franco race , and that is a problem Franco was the best hope for Liquigas to win the race , Now the team had to call other Italian star Vicenso Nibali , who claimed that he can fit the spot that his team mate left behind.
We hope that all that is just a misunderstood, and Franco can go ahead on the tour , where last year he got the polka dot jersey .
