just seen cav on bbc breakfast. the usual rubbish muppet interview and not even asking him which team he's riding for next year. asking if the team helped by "intimidating" the other riders
Yes, I hung off going out the door to work a bit longer, thinking it would be the ideal chance to make some sort of statement about which team, can't believe the bbc gadgie never asked...shows how much, or how little, research they do.
In fairness, they may have known and been asked/told not to ask about it. I'm presuming people being interviewed (certainly for something light like breakfast tv) get to see the questions in advance, just to prepare themselves and to veto any they don't want to speak about.

Charlie wossisface is a terrible presenter anyway. He's not inquisitive like a real journo and makes several mistakes (usually funny, like the one where he pissed off the Star Wars fans)
Bill Turnbull is a legend though.

on a live chat on sky sports, dave brailsford compared bmc to man city; in other words they have a lot of money and can probably offer cav the most money.
worth an outside bet methinks…

Bit rich coming from Brailsford isn't it? Isn't that exactly how Sky came across when they started out - waving their money around and p1ssing off everyone else in the sport? At least BMC have got a couple of seasons behind them and a TdeF victory.

WHEN THE CHUFFIN' HECK IS HE GOING TO TELL US???
When he was interviewed on sky sports news about it they asked him and he just smiled and said they were still sorting 1 or 2 things out with his contract and it should be being announced in the next week or two.
My money's on Sky.
This is interesting though.....

Its not unheard of for a rider to ride a frame of choice plastered in the sponsors logo's. Just brand up a Specialized with Pinarello and there you go.
I've heard that Cadel Evan's rode a PX Stealth frame (PX designed the frame, but didnt buy the mold, so it is possible to buy non-branded versions - there are several brands selling this frame under different names, moda being one example) branded as Ridley in the TdF TT 2007, pictures show him riding a bike that resembles a PX.

But it is precisely this last year when they started using the Venge. At the speed Cav does, there is probably some real aerodynamic advantages in power performance. Tony Martin also insisted on their bikes is also interesting - these are the guys who have had real experience.
It has also been said recently that Cav is not so concerned about his bike's weight.
