TDF ’08 – Let Levi Ride

More than 45,000 people have signed the online petition to “Let Levi Ride” in the 2008 Tour de France.

Leipheimer, third last year to winning Astana teammate Alberto Contador, will be on the sideline in July if Tour owner ASO (pronounce that as you will) continues to say that Astana is not welcome. ASO is punishing the reincarnated team for doping violations committed by riders no longer on Astana and management that is long gone.

Last week’s RBR poll asked if Astana should be allowed into the ’08 Tour and 89% of 1,200 voters said yes. If you’d like to see Levi and his team in the Tour, it might help to sign the ASO-bound petition at http://www.letleviride.com
