Is the white the youth jersey? and it was clearly the smartest thing to give Cavendish the Pink as he got the best chance defending it tomorrow |

I don't think so. Maybe the Tour, but not the Giro as probably he doesn't want to get tired for the Tour.

Agreed, i think he'll win all the stages he can, and then retire and get ready for the tour.

yeah you're right. I don't know why I thought he is riding. Then yes I don't see a real rival for Lovkvist then.

Im hoping froome will supruse a few people he looked ok in the tdf with only 3 riders in the team hopefully he will should be quite close though as there are not any stand out riders like the last few years (contador, ricco & schleck) |

I wouldn't say Andy Schleck was a very established rider when he won the white jersey. that was more his breakthrough...
If children have the ability to ignore all odds and percentages, then maybe we can all learn from them. When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up, or Fight Like Hell.

Froome isn't such a good climber, I think.

I'd say even though he's building form gaining the "maglia bianca" is something important enough

still a big question for him are the mountains. He really cracked in TdF last year in the high mountain stages, after he wore the white jersey in the stages after the TT.
