This is great news for Popovych. With a team this strong he definitely can win the Giro next year.

The Pro Tour.

I thought that was a flop. Granted I don't keep up with that stuff.

And Roadwarrior, was that a stipulation of the new sponsorship agreement with Discovery?

Postal needed a good young GC rider. It's a good move for all.

All teams with a Pro Tour license are required to take part in the races the UCI has listed as part of the Tour.

Is Popo the next LA? I would think that a US sponsored team would want a US lead, right?
