Manx cycling star Mark Cavendish has admitted the current dispute between Tour de France organisers and the sports world governing body could seriously disrupt his season.
The row has already forced Cavendish to pull out of the Paris-Nice stage race, the traditional European season opener, after the International Cycling Union threatened bans of up to six months for competitors taking part.
Cav says if the situation remains unresolved, he may be forced to choose between Le Tour and the Beijing Olympics:-
Rugby: Vagabonds Ladies quartet in Cheshire squad this weekend
Football: Onchan beat Ramsey to lift Junior Cup
Triathlon: Will Draper victorious at Challenge Salou
Grant Thomson to race next week after new ankle diagnosis
