Now that's AC has the most ridiculous Giro in the bag, whats in store for July? Alien vs Predator with Froome and Contador and JV trying to convince everyone that doping stopped in 2006 while Sky doing 2012 train with Astana, and Froome climbing with his sandshoes and AC killing it like its 2007 all over again with Giro in his legs while speaking spanish entire time?

This post is all over the place, but I am so looking forward to the battle of trains. If Astana's TdF team has the same form as their Giro team, vs Sky 2012 train, holy crap it may warp the space time continuum!

Contador to do the double and pretend to be in trouble again in the last week

Froome to fall off the edge of a mountain while looking at his handle bars and not the bend ahead, and ala ET fly off into the distance with the alien speed he has revved up

Nibali to prove Astana are clean by coming second without sweating behind clean Contador of course

Quintana for third...could have been the win but he will fall off his TT bike again as stabelizers are not allowed

Some random dutch man fourth

Sagan wins a mountain stage from a break and the green jersey proving Le tour is of course clean when a big man can saunter up a mountain....sure anyone can win now !

What else to predict apart from the rise of Movement For Incredible Cycling - Astana doms thrashing the field, Bertie to kick them in the balls without any visible team support, Vroom going 200rpm seated vroooms, and maybe Nairito will look at it from a distance in front of them, coming from spiritual journey in secret Inca temple.
