Midst rumored financial difficulties and potential sponsor changes, Team Astana will be doing a mid-Giro uniform swap. Earlier in the season, high-profile membes of Astana including Levi Leipheimer, Chris Horner and Lance Armstrong, raced the in the US Tour De Gila, using Armstrong's shop team, Mellow Johnny's uniform. One can only speculate what's next for the incarnation of this powerhouse team: USPS -> Discovery -> Astana -> ? Does this mean that all Astana gear will flood eBay at incredibly cheap prices? One can only hope as Daddy needs a new wind vest. 
Update from Johan Bruyneel (Yes, they'll be riding the Tour. No they're not sure about Vinokourov) and a little more commentary on the Giro at VN.com
