  1. Cyclingnews-
    After a difficult Tour de France with one doping scandal after another
    and bitter tension between the organisers, Amaury Sport Organisation
    (ASO) and cycling's governing body, the UCI, there was a great deal of
    speculation that the Tour de France would take drastic action for next
    year's event and embrace the model of national teams instead of trade
    teams. Some of this speculation came about because the Tour de
    l'Avenir, another race organised by the ASO, returned to the national
    teams model this year.

    I like it..and take some of the zillions of $ out of it.

    It worked wonders for the British national team at the Tour in 1967.

    Yeah like the Soviets, Chinese, and US never ran doping programs and
    pumped massive amounts of cash into competition for the glory of the
    Nation.
    Jingoism is definitely preferable to corporate greed.
