Good to see Rory Sutherland getting another shot in Europe with Saxo, he is very capable of good results would be a nice addition to the supporting cast for Contador

Pft... I have 705 000 feet / 215 000 metres so far this year

I may be a joke though! Haha.

Seen Phinney in person and he is definitely not 6 feet 5.
Cyclist stats often seem made up. I'm 6 foot 2 and TP is barely taller if at all. I also have a hard time believing weights as there is no way Hushovd weighed 15lbs more than I do.
How much longer is Farrar contracted for? Just wondering how long it'll take before they push him down a few pegs against competition where he can actually win.
