I'm going for Leopard to win this one. With that many ex-Riis riders, they can't have forgotten their TTT training.

Good TT'lists chart:
Sky; EBH Thomas Wiggins Flecha?
HTC: Martin, Bak, van Garderen, Velits
Leo: Spartacus, Fuglsang, Monfort, Gerdemann, Andy?
Shack: Kloeden, Leipheimer, Brajkovic? Horner? Popovych?
? - stands for riders i'm not sure
Good TTT riders arent necesarily the best TT riders. For example, Cavendish is a good TTT rider.
Agreed. Additioanlly Shack's DS said that the course is little too short for their liking and they are not the biggest favourites. The article was I think couple of days ago on cycling.news

What do you guys think of CSC's chances? Considering Conta lost a lot time today?
Likelt to be more losses to rivals for Contador (and Samuel Sanchez)

Yes, but he wont keep it!
Which keeps things interesting, that's for sure. Not missing the sprinter's flat opening week at all! |

I think it will be hard for CSC to win this
SaxoBank will not have any chance to win. Especially since they left Gustav Larsson at home!

Im not missing the prologue! Road stage with some form of uphill finish is much more interesting than another Cancellara yellow jersey - though he did come close

What a surprise!
On Sky's facebook page when I comment usually people reply that I am too negative. So I have to balance that here and stay postive
I know who you are now then

Can't say I was really surprised to see him try, but he did a good job at fobbing off his chances pre-Tour by talking about the lack of a prologue. I'm sure he would have made some people very happy if he had won today - he was at 30/1 at Paddy Power earlier
Gilbert was the safe bet though |

Hmm, HTC or Leopard for this one, i think. Sky as outsider for me, they could win also. I dont think Garmin or Radio can take the win, but hey.. I can be wrong
Imo Saxo Bank-SunGard should be happy if they can lose about 30 seconds. 45-60 seconds sounds more realistic though.

Stage 2: My head says HTC but PCM$ spent on Radioshack.
Only because the generous odds offered would at least compensate for the depression felt if the actual team win

Can you just shut up about Thor yet, all your comments is about the man love you have for Thor. Every comment on a screenshot is about Thor. Garmin-Cervelo will not win this. They will not be close. So shut you pie hole.

I agree with your Thor comments, but Garmin Cervelo will be close. I dont think they will win either but its pretty hard for them not to finish as one of the Top 5 teams tommorow.
