Could this be the end of one of the all time cheats of cycling? I hope so.

And Riis was the owner a few years ago.
That's the trouble when you get into bed with the wrong bed fellow!
I don't think Riis will give a toss. He sold the team to Tinkov for a huge amount right at the top of the market.
The word in the Danish press is that Tinkoff demoted one of the sports directors who Riis hired and that started it all. Contador's lack of form is also mentioned.
Hence his good showing today in Tour of Catulyna
Vino? For those of us with less insight.Mr Tinkov seems to be an impatient person used to getting what he wants, any way he wants. So owning a team that is not winning much (wonder why?) must be frustrating. Still it's cheaper than running a footy team. Sacking the management shows little understanding, maybe Vino will be next to be asked to take over and "get results"?
