Wiggins crashes out of Giro, Froome crashes out of Tour.

Andy Schleck busted for doping at the Tour, while in a podium position behind Contador.

Boonen wins M-S-R (thanks to Cavendish).

Sagan wins Paris-Roubaix as everyone marks Canc & Boonen.

Valverde wins Vuelta, only to promptly be accused of doping by a livid and foul-mouthed Wiggins.

Love these predictions. :D

- Gesink to win La Vuelta.
- Wiggins to retire as he's taken to an anger management clinic.
- T. Martin will win Dauphiné by 1 sec.
- Froome is found to be a real bio hazard after testing positive for radioactivity.
- A French to win Le Tour, not sure if it's Pinot or Rolland.

Gilbert to dominate at the Ardennes again (at least 2).
GVA will have a falling out with BMC.
Cancellara/ Boonen to win 1 cobbled monument each.
EBH, Sagan, Degenkolb or Goss to win M-SR.
Cav to win G-W.
Cadel Evans to podium at the TDF, ride great at the Ardennes in support of Gilbert then beat Gilbert and Nibali...at the WC (ably assisted by Gerrans, Porte and Clarke).
Speaking of Nibali i shall now say he shall win the Giro, as Wiggins may not be able to start training for a while and i think Nibali can climb just a little better than Hesjedal (who i like a lot). De Gendt shall top 5 in one GT and win Paris Nice.
Porte shall do what Froome did and at the Giro be stronger than Wiggins.
Kruiswijk will do well at a GT.
Basso will go better than he did this year.
Sagan will get the first yellow jersey at the TDF.
Moser will kick-*** at whatever GT he rides.

Bold predictions
Cavendish not get dropped on the Poggio and go on to win the bunch sprint (too bad that Cancellara, Sagan, and Nibali had already made it to the finish in a breakaway)

Evans to enter the tour as BMC's leader only to have Tejay attack him and everyone else to win the first MTF stage and end up on the podium.

Tony Martin to podium in a GT.

Wiggins to have no motivation and enter the Giro out of form, get dropped in the mountains, and get beaten in the TT...by Joaquim rodriguez.

Andy Schleck to win the Tour :eek:
by 5 minutes :eek:

Slightly more realistic predictions
Gilbert to do the Ardennes triple, win paris tour, Lombardia, a handfull of stages and defend his rainbow stripes, thus putting a end to the curse of the rainbow jersey. :cool:

Nibali to win the Giro.
Rodriguez to win his first GT.
Cance to win Flanders and Roubaix

I think that will not happen. One article i read said as he was getting pulled away in the ambulance he flipped the bird to the media.

@Wigwan, Jens Attacks and LS got some pretty good picks last year.
