I wouldn't trust him either. And this Giro's route can't possibly help. And the fact that Larsson is an arrogant ass that nobody likes can't possibly help either 
Ha! Wait and see! In June Chris has made an "Andy"
Like danish fans assured me he would in 2008?

A bit early to rely on Guldhammer for a GT top 10, no?

I meant in the sense of making good results - but yeah, I see now that we're still talking about the top-10 prediction, so never mind |

Apparently, Riis has already picked his riders for the Tour. 1 of the following will be left out: Andy Schleck, Fränk Schleck, Fabian Cancellara, Stuart O'Grady, Jens Voigt, Gustav Larsson, Matti Breschel, Jacob Fuglsang, Nicki Sørensen and Chris Anker Sørensen. |

There wont be a TTT for the 2010 Tour, right? Then it'll probably be Larsson - he was rubbish this year |

I think Cadel's BMC kit looks quite nice.

Speaking of making fun of Saxo for guaranteeing their riders a Tour spot and thus making them lazy:
Euskaltel have announced their Tour nine.
Samuel Sánchez, Egoi MartÃnez, Ruben Pérez, Gorka Verdugo, Aitor Hernández, Iñaki Isasi, Juanjo Oroz, Alan Pérez and Iban Velasco.
In reserve in case someone gets injured:
Koldo Fernández, Beñat Intxausti and Romain Sicard
Sánchez will ride:
Volta ao Algarve, Paris-Nice, Criterium International/Volta a Catalunya, Vuelta al PaÃs Vasco (season goal), Dauphiné/Suisse, Tour de France (season goal). After that, isn't decided.
also,
Igor Astarloa retires

"Igor Astarloa retires"
He sounds familiar, did he ever win something?

Fugslang is absolutely unreliable in any race longer than 5 days. |

So, same time, same place next December right? Why do we even have a racing season, why not just have a TDF too?
Oh that would be great.

My biggest pet peeve about cycling and people in the US. They think the sport begins and ends with the Tour de France. Even cycling fans think it is everything. I always tell them (and this is the truth), that if I could choose between winning the Tour or Paris-Roubaix, I would choose Paris-Roubaix. |
