    Not on the start list: Astana-Wurth:

    (From PezCyclingnews.com):

    ASO says NO to Astana-Wurth
    - Posted 12:25 PM PST - Just in - the ASO has ruled Astana-Wurth OUT of
    Le Tour! Whoa - snubbing the CAS - that takes some major cajones if you
    ask us... but in true ASO tradition, no one is going to tell 'em who's
    on the guest list for this party. Sorry, but details on the why's for
    this one are still in translation, but tune in later for more.

    CAS Says YES to Astana-Wurth
    - Posted 11:30AM PST - Finally: as we go to press, the news arriaved
    that the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has ruled the Alexandre
    Vinokourov's Astana-Wurth team can not be kept out of Le Tour. Of
    course, whether the ASO chooses to honour this decision remains to be
    seen... so keep it dialed to PEZ.

    Congrats to Pez for actually getting the jump on a story.

    Que? My BlueBerry is getting crossed wires now.

    I think I'd better pin on a race number for Le Grand Depart, as they
    look to be short of a few guys.

    Valverde, the great hope of Spanish cycling. IIRC, his named was mentioned
    at the very beginning of this story as NOT being involved. I found it
    strange that they thought it important enough to clear him specifically
    right from the start.

    I suppose Spanish media would find that fact particularly interesting, and
    since they are the primary source, it gets mentioned often.

    Tom Boonen has never been mentioned. Come to think of it, very few one-day
    riders/sprinters seem to be mentioned. They're all GC guys.

    Well I've never been to Spain,
    But I kinda like the music...
    Say, the ladies are insane there ...

    No-one from France on the list. Mind you, the French may all be using
    some French doping place that hasn't yet been found. But it's also
    possible that the French are clean. The same, of course, applies to the
    US riders, with a good stretch of the imagination.

    As for the French being clean well they can barely wash themselves in
    the morning (having the lowest water and soap usage in the developed
    world) so the chances of them being clean are slim to non existent -
    unless the drug testing lab is in France of course 🙂

    and surely that should read with a good stretch of the imagination....

    Which brings us to the next question: is this the end of the sport
    (pro level), or just the end of the Grand Tours? There's some that
    would not mind at some level cutting loose the Tours. With the
    tricorner battles since the Protour started, someone is going to be
    mentioning this soon and loudly.

    I always liked Paris Roubaix best. Have to love anything where crowds
    stand around a mud puddle on the corner for hours. Only auto rallying
    - maybe its the same crowds.
