Van Heeswijk definitely out

Max van Heeswijk will definitely not be riding Milan-San Remo on Saturday. The Dutchman has suffered from toothache and a cold this week, and doesn't rate his form good enough for the 300 km event. He will instead aim for next Wednesday's Dwars door Vlaanderen. Van Heeswijk's place in the Discovery Channel team will be taken by New Zealander Hayden Roulston.
