Heh.
Riis said that if Csncellara has no accidents or any other unluck during the time trial, he expects him to win by c. 2 minutes. |

I wouldn't describe you as "interesting". Not since you described your halloween uniform.

There's some good prospects in U23 (Van Garderen, Bobdrige, Brandle,...), should be worth watching. Malori to win again? don't know how he is at the moment. Hope Nelson Oliveira to make a decent ride (top 10). |

With Kritskiy out it's basically Malori's race to lose

I'm curious to see what Daniel TEKLEHAIMANOT from Eritrea does, he made top 10 in L'Avenir! Black cyclist are rare don't know why really, think they have lots of potential to Cycling (very hard physically like marathons). |

They are rare because they lack competitiveness, as they can't compete with the best. Without competing with the more competitive european cycling, the african cycling will never develop. The same goes for asia or latin america (Colombia aside), though in the last there's a better level.
Also, they have not enough money to buy a better condition.
Edit: I'm curious to see what he can do too, btw.

José Rujano,
Jackson Rodriguez,
Ronald Gonzalez,
Carlos Ochoa
Freddy Vargas
Franklin Chacón.
Rujano is in great shape, just win Venezuela and Colombia tours.
May be he come back to Europe.

Cycling is alot more expensive to do than running, and most africen countries are very poor, and their infastrukture are very vad aswell.

Kittel's doing great. He'll beat Van Winden's time, that's for sure. |

I'm suprised Van Winden is 2nd so far. He doesn't have a very good season really.
He'll probably drop down when favorites start. I think/thought top 10 was maximum for these dutchies normally. |
