Who do you think will lead the German team after Jan Ullrich's dismissal?
with his also-ran palmares kloden would make a great replacement for der kaiser

seriously, kloden is 36, which is pretty long in the tooth for a pro cyclist.... bjarne riis was 35 when he won the tour and he was the oldest guy to win for many years as i recall.
i'd think T-moble would be looking for someone younger with more promise rather than an old guy with few wins and only occasional flashes of brilliance
