Tour de France 2010

Postby AJG » Sun Jul 04, 2010 2:59 am

I think this will be one of the best tours in recent years...

Evans may well finally get the win, coming in with good form off the Tour Italia, and not having raced since, taking himself alone up into the Swiss mountains to train (and of course current Road Racing World Champion - atleast he should be easy to pick out in the peleton!)

But I am looking forward most to the mountain stages this year, after watching the Schlecks last year, especially Andy.

Cant see anyone but Cavendish claiming the Green Jersey, and I will go on record picking Andy Schleck (maybe Frank?) for the King of the Mountains... Yellow is going to be tough to pick until we get to see some form in the actual race me thinks... Conatador could easily go back to back, Basso and Schleck and of course Cadel Evans could all claim the overall title though....

If you watch the stages live, check http://www.letour.fr/indexus.html for live timing data, similar to whats available on the Formula One site...

Feast of sports on SBS what with this continuing on from the World Cup!
Awesome....
:)

Edit: Good start by Cadel, 39 seconds off Cancellara's pace, but <20 seconds from Contador and Armstrong, and ahead of Basso...
Bring on the real stages!

Crazy 1st stage, those crowds were quite impressive. A bit too close for the riders liking from what i read. Todays stage could be a good day for a breakaway. With i think 4 categorised climbs coming into the finish.

I cant see anyone but contador winning this yeah, he just looks way too strong, only the team of andy schleck could destroy this race and they wil have to for anyone else to have a chance of winning
