    Who Will Win the 2015 Vuelta a Espana?

    I have no idea. But I think it's great that we're 10 stages in and still have seven or eight legitimate contenders. Should be a wild ride.

    2015 Tour de France Stage 6: Abbeville-Le Havre 191.5km

    600 meters at 9 percent! http://www.cronoescalada.com/index.php/puertos/view/4343 Certainly will drop a lot of the sprinters, perhaps even Sagan et. al. if the GC guys go at it. And with Nibali, Contador and Quintana needing time, one of the three just might. Another great stage with possible...

    2015 Tour de France: Stage 2: Utrecht › Neeltje Jans (166k)

    Not a Cav fun but unless there's a big upset he will win with a clean set of wheels, and maybe two.

    Help me find someone to root for at Le Tour

    So the big four: Contador: Doping ban Froome: Insists on being clean, but Leinders, magic leap Nibali: Astana, US Postal 2.0, Vino, my god this guy is dirty Quintana: Spanish team, teammates with Valv,Piti Any thoughts on who might be the least dirty? Hope for an improbable run from Pinot? I'm...

    2015 Giro d'Italia Stage 15: Marostica–Madonna di Campiglio

    You've got to think at least one of the Astana riders will go hard on the Daone climb to pressure Bert's team. In any case Astana needs time in the mountains and have cards to play. Given the chaotic nature of the first two weeks, anything is possible in this Giro. Can't wait for the final week.

    TDF 2015 Who wins?

    Depends a lot on the route. If it's really mountainous I'd give the nod to Nairo. In any case, my hope is that all are healthy. It will make for one hell of a race.

    2014 Tour de France July 19, Stage 14: Grenoble - Risoul 177km

    I'd like to see some french teams get riders up the road and then help Pinot, Bardet or Peraud get from the top of the Izoard to the base of Risoul. Honestly the fight for the podium is going to be great over the next week.

    Phil and Paul

    I got so tired today of hearing about JRod's supposed ambitions to win the Tour; how he'd had such a terrible week and now was forced to ride for the KOM jersey. Do these two clowns really not know that he was riding the tour to find form, maybe win a stage and the KOM, with the goal of training...

    2013 Vuelta a Espana, Stage 19: S. Vicente Barquera / Oviedo.Alto Naranco (181km)

    Disagree. All Horner has to do is follow Nibali. Radio Shack would be thrilled to let a large break go.

    2013 Vuelta a España, Stage 17: Calahorra→Burgos (189km)

    Thank you. That's the information I was looking for. I agree we're likely to either see a break, or an attack on the final bump that sticks.

    2013 Vuelta a España, Stage 17: Calahorra→Burgos (189km)

    Given that little bump at the end and a tail wind, I'd be surprised if this ends in a bunch finish. Do the "sprinters" teams, such as they are, actually have any firepower left? I see a breakaway.
