It's one of the biggest races on the US Calender but only the hardcore fans even know it's going on. Cyclingnews actually is covering live on their tracker. Dan Holloway who rides for Garmin's Felt Dev squad has a big lead for the first 2 circuits. He is actually riding for USA today as is...

It's hard for me to believe that Simoni is just going to throw in the towel. Curious that Serpa sits higher up. Will we see something on Wednesday or Friday from these two?

I believe that Garmin has signed on through 2010 but I could be wrong and certainly that hasn't stopped title sponsors from pulling out before. I was at the team presentation in Boulder last November and JV's mantra was all about it being time to win. Certainly this hasn't come to pass so I...

What would leave anyone to think that if LL was to attack that Menchov couldn't or wouldn't counter? I would think the rest day will come into play.

Considering their aspirations where over after the TTT JV's has checked out and is busy day dreaming about Dan Martin being the best young rider in the TdF. Then again Garmin fans can still look forward to Tommy Gun's assault on Blockhaus. He's moved up about 10 spots for 100th.:) shades of...

I wouldn't say Valjavec is a slouch in the TT. Of course I had to check because he's the invisible man. As far as climbing goes this week will be a good comparison. Seems to me you already have an idea the wide open rules of the league I'm in.:)

I agree and to fans personality is key but would LL be fighting for a podium spot if he wasn't surrounded by such a strong team? I'll keep him for the final GC points now and in July.

seems to me that while everyone is focused on the obvious contenders he could keep sneaking up over the next week and come July could be a dark horse.

Interesting discussion points but I'm not going to play the crack pot anymore on cyclingnews. Read my footer, you and goof with me there.

Any Theories on why Tadej Valjavec never is mentioned as a quality rider?

Mellow, I'm done goofing off and respectfully apologize. In regards to you following this issue are you suggesting that you see an attempt by JB and LA to split from Astana? My words not yours. thanks

Thanks for the Astana info Mellow. In reference to this statement I'm curious when you where anointed as the the judge to what is pointless and what isn't. It always cracks me up when public forums are the ones that wind up being controlled by up tight grandiose Know it all and the the forums...

Don't forget about Andy Hampsten for 7-11.

:D You have no idea! I just finished my latest issues of Art Forum and Conde Naste so I decided to log back in and see if anyone who takes themselves way to seriously bit on my line and sure enough you did. I love goofing on forums with elitist snobs who always love preaching to the choir while...
