Just the fact that the 8 time TDF winning team, with 1st, 2rd, and 8th in GC can't find a sponsor should tell you that the money is leaving cycling.
And T-Mobile, who didn't do very well and had a rider busted during the tour, just renewed.
Seems to me like it will be a lot harder to get an
American sponsor. IIRC viewership for this year's TdF was up, and the crowds (there and for the Giro) were also huge.
