Today, the Directeur Sportif of Team Radioshack, Johann Bruyneel, begins his 2 month suspension that was handed out to him because of Team Radioshack’s decision to don the jerseys depicted above, in honor of the 28 million people worldwide fighting cancer.
The UCI, the governing body of international cycling decided that switching uniforms during the Tour de France is a huge no-no.
It’s ok though, isn’t it? The coverage they got was magnified way beyond what they would have received had they been able to wear the jerseys. There’s opportunities in unopportunistic happenings.
And thanks to Johann, and all of Team Radioshack, for standing behind a true cause.
Side note: It’s the 10 year anniversary of the formation of Livestrong. Rejoice, yo.
