Misty Taste Of Moonshine


You know by now that Mongo's guy in pro cycling is Andreas Kloden, who rides for Team Astana. With the team's exclusion from the Giro d'Italia, and a possible exclusion from Le Tour de France, Mongo is left with the possibility that he may need to pick a new guy for the upcoming season.

I was a fan of Cadel Evans "back in the day" when the only people touting his skill were Phil Liggett... and Mongo. That would be the easy pick considering he won the Pro Tour title and was runner up in the TDF last year. But as usual, Mongo goes against the grain.

I hereby announce that Mongo's substitute GC guy for the "Grand Tours" is Caisse d'Epargne rider...not Valverde, not Pereiro, but instead...Vladimir Karpets.
