Time for the TDF to really start

[goldenboy]

These flat stages are like watching basketball- if you see the last minute, you've seen the whole thing. Sure, a few guys will try a breakaway, but they almost always get caught, and then the sprinters sprint, and that's that. But tomorrow, the guys gunning for yellow will have a TT, and after all the chaos this year we can finally get an idea of who might take it. I would put my money on George or Floyd right now, or at least I hope so. That is all...

I'm gonna go with Zabriskie to win, and Floyd to take the yellow.

I follow along on velonews.com until the mountain stages, then it's OLN all the way baby.

The mountains will tell the true riders for sure. Road riding on flats is like skiing in pow... anyone can do it well :) :)

Ugh...Bobby Julich's TT crash was brutal.
