In the last two images, what is the name of the team with the rider in the light blue jersey following Armstrong? Those almost look like Astanna colors, but not quite. Wouldn't that be funny?
I have to say that the new Radio Shack Team jersey's suck. They need a little Italian influence to jazz them up a bit! It's good to see Lance on a new team thou. Let's just hope that he takes the team to the Giro this May. I want to go back to Italy again!

Hi Chas,
Yep, that's Team Astana...I thought there was a certain irony in that too.

The softness is probably due to the compression for upload and also the transfer from flickr.
Also they are only low res saved as 600 x 400 and PS quality 6.
File size approx 120kb

That's why the new bike sponsor then huh. No Trek for Astanna anymore. Specilized makes some nice bikes, I guess.

I am thinking Team Radio Shack started because Lance wanted his own team. And yes the jerseys suck. Trek is behind Lance so of course they will go with him. Also Johan went with him. Specialized is a great bike, I don't think Lance leaving had much to do with the new rides. Astana is broke i am thinking $$ had more to do with it.

Oh ya, the pictures look great. People will complain about the tires being cutting off. Number 1 is the winner.
