Sweet! A New German Team

Which should have enough money to really challenge for a lot of wins.
You could do a hell of a lot worse than building around Zabel and
Petacchi to put the team on the map. Bet your ass that Zabel kills
himself as a lead out before he retires. Zabel is a Pro's pro. Maybe
they can grab Bolts from Gerolsteiner and really make the team rock.
I'm putting in a call for a jersey now!

Zabel's new team to be presented at world's

I'm really struggling to refrain from celebrating what looks like
three solid ProTour teams from Germany, but goddamn life is good.
Gruss Gott

Gonna be white with a big N ?

Cows?

It would be interesting to see Cows in Jerseys and riders in Jerseys
with cows on them at the TdF...

Oh no! Not another orange/blue themed jersey... I like the combination,
but it gets confusing.

That is Austrian German.

Build a team around Zabel? How about Olaf Ludwig? Perhaps Lutz
Heschlitz or Michael Hubner?

There's another guy on the team who could act as a stand-in for Zabel in
case he gets sick or injured. I think he used to be in transportation
before, cause I read he's bringing his train with him from the last place he
worked. Name of Petacchi.

Yep, standard in Bavaria, but will get you looks as if you stepped in
something in Rheinland-Pfalz.

Aha! They are obviously copying my club, Team Velocity, which has used
the blue & ornage colors for the past four years. In 2005, the colors
changed to deemphasize the orange, and to use a lighter blue.

See teamvelocity.org <http://www.teamvelocity.org>

It's OK, maybe they'll be as successful as our racers are!

Also in B-W (where I lived for a year).
I think it's a catholic greeting.
