With Andy Schleck's performance in the Dauphine, I can't help but be reminded of previous years when so many top contenders have been no shows for this race and show up strong as an ox for the Tour. Often the reason has likely been that they've recently withdrawn blood and are weak for the next couple of weeks.
I know Schleck has shown no form all year, and his troubles have been well publicized, but this performance is suspiciously bad to me. If he shows up at the Tour with form, it will have been several times in recent years that he shows magic form. Very suspicious.
