Beloki News
Cyclingnews is reporting that Beloki will not be riding for Liberty Seguros next year. He apparently hopes to be a part of Stayer.
I personally think that it would be good for him to get away from Saiz.

Liberty Seguros is what they're calling Once these days, yes? BTW, is he back on the bike yet?

More Saiz Turmoil
There always seems to be confromtation and turmoil around Saiz. Cycling's tough enough. Beloki's better off at Stayer.

His managment of the ONCE team during the last Vuelta was a perfect example of Brent's post. Needlessly working his team to death and belatedly giving Nozal leadership of the team are just two examples of bad management.

I think Saiz is a genius when it comes to winning the team competition of just about anything he enters. The only thing he seems to be incapable of winning is the GC.

What did Postal finish in the team in the Tour and Vuelta, like fourth?
Nobody remembers the team competition...they all remember who is on the top of the podium.

Beloki and Siaz
I agree that Beloki is better away from Siaz, while watching the past few years of racing, he was allways doing things different then I would. I am glad others agree with me.
