Now, in the hope fo not sounding too much like a conspiracy freak, which i definately am not, that's another blog, haha jokes, it's really not... i think the tour organisers have got something against either him, or Mark Cavendish or HTC Columbia or they just wanted to have some fun by kicking someone out who just happens to be an Aussie, actually that may be a happy coincidence.
But seriously, i think the tour has something major to answer for. I don't understand how two guys can go at it, throwing punches and wheeling tyres to about to the other guy's head and get a 300 Euro fine, and that's it.
But Mark Renshaw, in the course of a fairly typical sprint head butted a guy, well a Kiwi anyway, a few times to avoid a massive crash and copped an elbow as well and gets expelled!
What damages cycling more, fisticuffs off the bike with nothing to do with the sport, or a normal sprint?
Yes granted Mark Renshaw shouldn't have done that to Julian Dean, and he shouldn't have blocked Tyler Farrah but get expelled? No I don't think so.
I also think it's a croc that the team couldn't appeal. Yes I know this is Europe and old habits die hard but seriously dictatorship is so 1940's...
The tour organisers should put Mark Renshaw back in, but give him the last time...
