Good form in the Dauphine = good 1 week in the Tour and bad 2 and 3 week.

We're what, one month before the Tour start. Maybe he feels a little lighter than a couple of days ago, but will gain that mass back before the Tour.
Then he'll gain again that mass he's lost to his profit during the Tour. Just guessing/teasing, maybe he's just not motivated and/or out of form. |

It'll be Bruyneel trolling him when he doesn't go to the tour.

Care to Explain Cadel Evans's Second Place at the Dauphine Last year, and the tour that followed? |

Just saying, the more Schleck soft pedals, the worse off he is. Though he may think it, he doesn't run the team. Bruyneel could do just like everyone is joking about, not have the Schlecks at the tour. Crazy, but if Andy doesn't try, that's what's gonna happen.

I think once Andy saw the tour route he said screw this season. Why would he even want to go to the Tour when he has no chance. He might as well go win the Vuelta

Massive over-simplification no? Evans 2nd last year wins the tour, Armstrong twice won the Dauphine and Tour in the same year, others have done it before him and many have had good performances at both. |

Nice win by Cadel, but surprised to See Kash doing so good, he will win the Tour now!

Shame for Sanchez, i'm still hoping that he cant ry and keep a Schleck of the podium in the Tour.
And it's good that Evans attacked, it shows that he's sure of his own abilities and in good form, hopefully can sustain it through to the Tour.
And Schleck pisses me off, he could have been doing a number of things in falling back but its irritating to watch someone who doesn't look fatigues at all just casually going backwards.

I still have hope that this talented guy is not total idiot. |

Andy has a safe place in the TdF-team:
Bruyneel went on to emphasize that Andy will certainly be riding the Tour de France at the end of the month. “Recently it was reported that I said only Fabian Cancellara was guaranteed a spot on the Tour team. That is not what I said. Translations need to be correct. What I said was based on RESULTS Cancellara was the only one guaranteed to be on the Tour team. It takes nine riders to ride the Tour. Of course Andy will be there.”
