The man just needs a team. Talk about the Silence of the Lottos.

Speculation that Evans may look elsewhere follows this year's Tour in which he was left without any Silence-Lotto teammates in the mountains, isolated with his rivals.

From here.

The Tour has started

The Tour de France, I mean. Apart from the Boxing Day Cricket Test, this is one of my favourite sporting times of the year these days. Sure, they may be drugged-up freaks whose bodies will fall apart at age 45 because of self-inflicted substance abuse, but what a great cycling race! And you can't beat the scenery. The views of passing castles are sensational.

I may actually be able to get some work done if I sit in front of the telly with my laptop at the same time.
