What is your goal for the Tour of California?
FC: Training. I want to do miles and spend more hours on the bike. My
condition is surely not the best, and I won’t go to the limit at all
times to show some results. I will be here to help the team as much as I
can, but it’s not the World Championships or a ProTour race – though I
hope it will become one! They have the wide roads, good organizing and
the people on the road – more than in some European races!
Thanks,
Magilla

I think cyclingnews just libelled Henk Vogels.

Do you mean Gravlax? They certainly don't look it. :)

Yes, Cancellara said he mostly wants to train and help the team. He
was looking forward to the prologue in the rain bow colors.
But as the press conf indicates (http://www.procyclingpress.com/
racereports/tofcali07/tofcali07-cscpressconfreport.html), CSC as a
team does take it more serious than just a training race. Just not as
high a priority as Discovery.

Those days of multi-million dollar sponsorships for a U.S. sponsored
Euro team are gone now that Lance is retired.
The current roster Discovery has lacks gravitas.
