Who?No surprise, Cookson's been largely anonymous for some time apart from a bit of glad-handing.
We were well on the page with the challenge to Cookson, although I am only posting to see a horse in stockings againWho?
L'Equipe is reporting that David Lappartient plans to run for UCI President in 2017.
Lappertient is president of the French Cycling Federation, European Cycling Union and the Professional Cycling Council, and a vice-president of the UCI.
No surprise there. I think Cookson faces an uphill battle on this and I imagine ASO are going to have a strong influence on the final chosen candidate. I won't mention stalking horses.
Cookson's complete lack of comment or even being seen since the Wiggins/SKY debacle speak volumes. He lacks leadership and needs to go.
I'm betting he's going to be a team owner in the Tinkoff mould!http://road.cc/content/news/231855-brian-cookson-reveals-plans-set-uci-womens-worldtour-team
