    Webcor prediction...Everyone is stoked that Horner is on the team. They have fun at the early
    races (real early),but the lack of talent is obvious. Then they go to Pomona.. Horner wins the
    uphill TT.....OH

    Horner is no longer in the lead. DUH! Repeat at Redlands, and huang and company are sent home with
    their egos broken.

    NRC schedule.
    03/18-21 Pomona Valley Stage Race
    4/24-28 Redlands

  6. Horner will get decent support from an enthusiastic sponsor. Webcor has been increasing their
    support each year since they first got involved. This year Webcor will sponsor a women's
    "elite" team.

    His former teammates and buddies Wohlberg and Klasna will race for another NorCal-based team and I
    expect they will spend significant time training around Klasna's new home in Cool, CA about 15 miles
    from where I live. Really good roads and terrain for guys like them. Easy access to long, mountain
    climbs at altitudes approaching 7000 feet. Most of the same roads LeMond used to train on.

    One of Webcor's team sponsors is UC Davis Sports Performance Group so Horner will have good access
    to top-level training advice amd other medical support.

    Horner has plenty of good results in races within Webcor's market area.

    It's at about 1200 feet elevation and it's not as hot as the valley.

    That 1200 feet is the difference between an average daily high during July/August of 91 in the
    valley and somewhere in the upper 80's at 1200 feet.

    Note to Steven... When will you escape back to the temperate climes of the Bay Area?

    Just because you're sucking vacuum at what? 4,500 feet in SLC you think that 1200 is small potatoes?
    Besides, it isn't the 1200 feet, it's the very sharp dropoff.

  12. uh dude, as far as I know they haven't told him yet - or the other guys...but they haven't gotten
    their contracts. I hear their new star hates this guy and it was part of the deal to sign him that
    they had to purge the team of Freds - gotta love it

    Who are you talking about? Horner? If so I like Horner. I just think that it is a shame the best
    stage racer (racing in the US) is now riding for a club make a [censored] salary. If you think I would
    trade my life for his you are sadly mistaken. Regardless my main thought is to the hard times in
    cycling. We are a far cry for the glory days at Saturn or Mercury. My suggestion for you is the
    follow the season and tell me I was right or wrong in October. So can it until the ducks fall where
    they may. I don't think Horner will reflect on 2004 as his greatest year. Lets see if the team is
    still together. See if Horner gives one red cent to those jokers when he wins less frequently and
    single handedly.

    RVD
    Ps If you are referring to Ted he is delusional. PSS Dork only some [censored] such as yourself thinks
    everyone wants to be a pro bike racer and everyone would love to live his life. Write back in
    July and talk about how cool lance is next.
