A shrinking peloton?
Posted Apr. 16, 2009
Buried deep in a press release from the Cyclistes Professionnel Asociés released on Thursday was a rather troubling statistic.
According to the CPA, there are a total of 866 riders registered with the UCI for the 2009 season.
That total marks a drop of 21 percent in respect to 2008 and a 29 percent drop from 2007.
The group said that a total of 476 riders were registered with 18 ProTour teams and another 390 riders with continental teams
