After several years and many wins Team Discovery will be no more.


The Discovery Channel, who currently sponsors Team Discovery, is puling their sponsorship of their cycling team, formerly lead by Lance Armstrong. As of 2008 Team Discovery will be no more. Other sponsors may be pulling out too because of some of the doping issues cycling has been dealing with.

The Discovery Channel says they did not pull out because of doping issues. They are pulling out because of a change in management and a restructuring of the company.

This leaves the cyclists on the team looking for another sponsor. They are currently looking at other U.S. companies as potential sponsors.
