VT: I understand that you've continued to train and are fit. I hear
from many fans who are eager for your return to racing. Any idea what
team you will ride with? What races will you target when you return to
racing in September?
Tyler: I had spoken to a number of teams before my decision came down
and was ultimately hoping to return to racing with Phonak. With the
decision being what it is, obviously I have to revisit any previous
discussions I've had. I don't want to end my career on this note,
and will absolutely return to racing, hopefully later this year. My
suspension is scheduled to end one day after the Individual Time Trial
which is disappointing. I would have liked to return for that.
However, I will be cleared by the Road Race which I hope to do on the
24th. Beyond that I can't really speculate because a lot has to be
ironed out before I could set a schedule. But October still offers a
full month of racing, and obviously if I were on a Pro Tour team by
that point, I'd want to do all the racing I could.
