OK, better than his brother, but comparing to guys like Gerdemann or Kloeden ? |

Obviously he isn't the best TT'er in the bunch, but he could take a minute or so on one of the stages on those... Especially Gerdemann... |

Not that it matters though. Andy Schleck can't hold good form for very long. As such, he'll be completely anonymous at the Tirreno.

I'm not banking anything on it, i'm just noting that he COULD do well here :-)
I hope Lövkvist will win, I kinda like the guy, and it's about time we get another great scandinavian rider... |

Much better?
Go take a hike butterball. His TT is barely any better I would say, needs very much improvement if he ever wants to do anything against contador |

Hyperfuckingbole.
Mostly meant that he is much more talented in TT than his brother. |

Funnily enough, Saxo Bank spent the past few months constantly reiterating that unlike last year, Andy would do Paris-Nice and Frank the Tirreno......then at the last moment they switched around for no reason...
