“Astana will ride in the three Grand Tours in 2007 with or without a ProTour license Tour de France organisers ASO told Astana team manager Mario Kummer.”
That’s good news as I want to see Vino stomping all over Europe next year like a man possessed. He’s got a great team, confidence from having won La Vuelta (and beating Valverde on home soil) and he’s a talented, aggressive bike rider who’s more fun to watch than any other top GC contender.
