Hope they get kicked out to be honest.

To save others drilling down through multiple tweets and links, it seems Lefevre is threatening to take his team home after http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/vue...el-keisse-after-woman-files-police-complaint/ - Iljo Keisse was fined for sexually harassing a waitress during a photo op at the race (there seems to be some disagreement over exactly what), then expelled under a conduct/reputation rule when Lefevre's team didn't withdraw him voluntarily.

Lefevre now seems to be doing his damnedest to improve the reputation of the race by showing that the organisers made the correct decision, eh?

Don't forget some Belgian cyclists on Facebook who completely fail to understand what Iljo Keisse and paly the 'boys will be boys card'.

What do Deceuninck do? Do they perhaps make digging equipment? Specifically for use when you find yourself in a hole?

Windows I think, but they seem to have no interest in fixing broken ones, more like throwing themselves out of them, in the grand tradition of Ypres's Cat Festival.

what a prick, if lefevere had any sense of right and wrong , he would have done the right thing himself instead of leaving it to race officials

One of the riders made lewd gestures to a waitress for which he has apolgised. He was later banned from the race for bringing the race into disrepute. Rightly so, in my opinion.

The management should have accepted it and kept their heads down.

Sagan is pretty special though, he’s the highest paid & worth it.

The sponsors are REALLY not happy about this!

Not what you expect/want for your business when you pump millions of Euros into a team ...

Amen - they seem to have done their best to activate the Streisand Effect!
