Astana OUT! Martians IN!

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

The folks who run the Giro are telling Astana to take a hike. The Giro people have found a new team called "Mars Attacks"! Team leaders Kang and Kronos said they are pleased that the Martian Team has been allowed to race this year in the Giro. Tests for doping will be difficult as the Martians have green blood that appears to be copper based. (Editors Note: As testing is so screwed up anyway it should not make much of a difference)!
