Everyone knows that if there's someone that wants Andy to win it's me, but let's get real, even Voigt admited it would be almost a miracle. |

I'm not Jesleyh, but if Andy were to somehow win, I'll happily put "Andy Schleck is the greatest cyclist ever" in my signature

Hmm... I will put Gesink down to 70MO in the DB I'm playing with
Or something with a sig, I'm not sure.
But no need to think about it, it won't happen

A rare appearance of Ybodonk. Since i hit so well in the last years Vuelta prediction, and have ended in top 10 (twice) and top 50 3 times in TDF manager in DK, I will come with my predictions Pay attention everyone.. arh im just kidding. Gonna be a mix of objectivity and heart.
Is it okay to come up with a top 15? Crossing my fingers - hope nobody crashes !
GC :
1. Contador (Heart)
2. Froome
3. Rodriguez
4. Valverde
5. Van Den Broeck
6. Pinot
7. Tejay VG
8. Quintana
9. Rolland
10. Talansky
11. Evans
12. Andy Schleck
13. Mollema
14. Voeckler
15. D Martin/or Jacob Fuglsang
KoM: Rolland/Voeckler or Pinot
Green : Sagan, so many stages which are hilly do drop Cav and the other heavy weights
Young : Pinot or Tejay
Team : Movistar or Saxo
Looking so much forward to this spectacular race. I said the same thing about last years Vuelta, and it gave us everything we lacked from the Tour.
For the first time in many years, we have many attacking and spectacular riders in the line up combined with a nice route.
I only miss Nibali and Betancour. Gotta love how youngsters already are becoming superstars and competing on highest level. It was impossible years ago. Probably because thing are "slightly" cleaner compared to before. Have a nice Tour everyone |

These are my pridictions for the TDF 2013
i think froome and conta are both equel in climing but froome is better in tt and has a little bit better team, Porte is a better tt rider then porito and valverde and equel i climbing. Pinot is going to be the suprise to me and v garderen the disapoitment of the TDF. sagan is winning green because he can do everything and cav can not get over mountain that good as sagan.
best team to me is movistar.
GC
1.Froome
2 Contador
3 porte
4 rodriguez
5 valverde
6 evans
7 pinot
8 quintana
9 van den broeck
10 fuglsang
green: 1 sagan 2 cavendish 3 greipel
white: 1 pinot 2 quintana 3 van garderen
mountain: voeckler
team: movistar |

Top 5 for a specialist time triallist in the tour route in all of recorded history most suited to a time triallist, that at the same time was the weakest tour de france field ever seen other than possible 1983.....not exactly any indication that he can finish top 5 this year.
I'd consider a top 10 a big success if I were him

1. Contador
2. Froome
3. Rodriguez
4. Valverde
5. D. Martin
6. Talansky
7. Quintana
8. Pinot
9. Roche
10. Evans
Outsiders for Top 10:
Andy, TvG, Mollema, Niemic, Porte
KoM: Van den Broeck? Anton? Possibly Dan Martin if he really aims for that? Basicly i have no idea.
Green: Sagan.
Team: Garmin, Talansky, Martin and Hesjedal will be a good combination, i think.
Combatative: I think Oldies like Jens Voigt or Stuart O'Grady might have a good Chance for this. If not probably somebody lik Izaguerre.
(I think but Martin and Roche are very ambitious Expectations, but Top 10 for Martin and Top 20 for Roche are definitely possible.) |

I just want Jens to pick up as many stages as possible. As for the overall:
1. Contador
2. Froome
3. RodrÃguez
4. Porte
5. Schleck
6. Hesjedal
7. Rolland
8. Pinot
9. Evans
10. Kreuziger
(The last few are bit wild but are really because I'm not sure who will finish where outside the top 5)
Green: Cav
Mountains: Voeckler or Someone like Roy who attacks loads and ends up in breaks
Combative: Jens - It's his last tour so whats he got to lose
Team - Sky (With Porte and Froome their squads set up to not loose time)
A note on 1st and 2nd. I would like Alberto to win as his style of riding is far more exciting than Sky, but I feel Sky could just tempo ride everyone into submission  |

Don't forget this isn't the Sky of last year, and this isn't the Saxo Bank of last year. Contador has brought climbing specialists, while Sky has more of an overall team. No Henao, Uran, Wiggins... Much less climbers than before. |
