Were there any other UCI teams besides Discovery running Treks? Is there a chance someone else will come in with a sponsorship for an American based team? As far as I know we don't have one now and what could be the reciprical effects on the Tour of Missouri, etc.?
Seeing as how le Tour has stated 2008 is an open field how would it look if we had Australia, the Carib, and/or Mexico with a representation and not the US?
My suggestion...Trek and Lance need to get together and look for a sponsor. AT&T might be a good start. Any other ideas of companies with International presence that could benefit?
For our part perhaps some e-mails to Trek and Lance to get the ball rolling might be in order. At least get the discussion going.
Thoughts?
