When will bad luck stop to follow our favourite riders? That's the last bad news of the month: Frank will not take part in Milan-Sanremo.
"A bad crash during training yesterday meant a trip to the hospital and now a shorter break from racing for Team Saxo Bank's Fränk Schleck. The rider from Luxembourg skidded with his front wheels during a training ride and crashed in a curve going downhill. Seven stitches on the chin and a heavy contusion on his left wrist was the immediate damage, but further examinations were needed yesterday afternoon at a clinic in Luxembourg to rule out any fractures. "I had to have further examinations yesterday to be sure that nothing was broken. My chin is stitched up and my wrist has a big swelling, but I guess I should consider myself lucky that nothing is broken. This doesn't come at a convenient time, since I’,m in really good shape after Paris-Nice and I hope to get back into racing as soon as possible", says Fränk Schleck who is now set to race the next time in Criterium International at the end of March. "We need Fränk to be back racing as soon as possible and since nothing is broken we had the possibility to send him to do the cobblestone races in Belgium next week, but since these races are demanding on the whole body, it's better to wait and then have him come back 100% fit in the race in France where we should have a good possibility to make some results with him and Jens Voigt", says sports director Kim Andersen.

I've got no comments.After Andy and Fabian,Frank is having problems too.Let's hope this bad luck will end soon.
that's just too much bad luck! Let's hope it's not going to be this way for the rest of the season. That would be really bad!
RispondiEliminaKurt, Matti, JJ, Stuey, and Jens are still hanging in there...
RispondiEliminaThat's true but if the bad luck spreads to those riders too. than it wouldn't be a nice season. But it's still early in the season, it can change.
RispondiEliminaAs people say in my class, "fortune is blind but bad luck can see very well" ...Why these things are happening just to Saxo Bank riders and not to...let me think...Astana's? Maybe there is really a conspiration against our favourite cyclists...And maybe Uncle Bjarne will find out everything about it and will organise a better conspiration against Astana's riders right in the month of...let me think..July!
RispondiElimina(I'm joooking...Perhaps ;)
Yeah, Bjarne's gonna go all Machavellian!
RispondiEliminaO'grady had to give up in M-S. the bad luck keeps spreading through the saxobank-team :S
RispondiEliminaWell,they´re stronger than Bad Luck! Btw,Bjarne should try to find a solution to all this bad luck soon! The Schlecks,O´Grady,Fabian...That´s just too bad.
