Not that it will have any reference to the tour, but AC takes this.

Looking forward to see Kwiatkowski and Moreno, expecting to see Valverde in good shape to.

Pity Andy isn't riding.

Stage 1 is too easy. A Netapp might beat Murito there.

If the final climb is 3%, I suppose you're probably right. Still quite a lot of climbing in the rest of the stage though.

Because EBH, Meersman or similar will win.

Remember last year? Stage 1 and 2 were easy stages with no GC threat whatsoever, except from some small climbs in the final. Perfect for EBH. Yet he was the first rider Sky sent to the front, taking wind for hours for no reason (they didn't even have yellow and the breakaway was no threat). The only stage they let EBH ride for himself was the completely flat one, which he somehow managed to win.

So I highly doubt they'll save EBH for the finish tomorrow. Agree about Meersman though, he should be the favourite.

I was describing a type of rider, as my post made clear. Please don't give me one of your EBH freak outs everytime he's mentioned.

I was extremely excited about him 5 years ago, but sadly he's turned in to a rider who will make a very good living, finish top 10 in world tour every year riding for himself, but not looking that like winning anything worth winning.

And I was just describing why one of those riders you mentioned won't win. Sorry for freaking out etc.

I don't know if any of you played PCM '06 but EBH was a beast in that version. Pretty much everything above 82 :D

Only Thomas Dekker was equal.

How much time do we think J Rod will lose to AC and CF in the time trial? Over a minute? It looks pretty flat.

Its pan flat so imo 1:30 if he improved TT from Vuelta.

Taaramäe is apparently feeling better than he has ever felt at this stage of the season. If he can't do a decent Dauphine and Tour with this form...
