2014 is the year of the Schlecks.

How soon before checkmate?

Cycling's governing body, UCI, agreed Monday to strip Lance Armstrong of his seven Tour de France titles and ban him for life, following a report from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency that found him guilty of leading a massive doping program on his teams.

Johan Bruyneel intends to fight charges he was a central figure in doping programs within Lance Armstrong's teams provided his defense hasn't been what he refers to as "permanently prejudiced" by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency's accusations.

Lance Armstrong's former manager Johan Bruyneel was forced to leave the RadioShack-Nissan team earlier today after being singled out as a central figure in the former Tour de France champion's doping program.

Team RadioShack-Nissan's Daniele Bennati earlier today sprinted to victory in stage 18 of the 2012 Vuelta a Espana beating Ben Swift of Team Sky Procycling and Team GreenEdge's Allan Davis with a convincing performance.

Team RadioShack-Nissan's Daniele Bennati sprints to stage victory in 2012 Vuelta a Espana ahead of Ben Swift of Team Sky Procycling; Team Saxo Bank-Tinkoff Bank's Alberto Contador maintains overall Vuelta a Espana lead ahead of Movistar's Alejandro Valverde.

Earlier today it was announced by Team RadioShack-Nissan that its rider Jens Voigt has renewed his contract with the team through the end of 2013. The 40 year-old German veteran announced his decision moments before the start of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge in Durango, Colorado.

With Andy Schleck out of the Tour de France 2012, what can RadioShack do to save themselves?

What will be the repercussions of the Ullrich and Contador cases?
