i think the ToB has been great this year, great to see the big teams- columbia, katusha, rabobank, garmin- actually bring decent teams and ride hard. columbia have been awesome, must be great experience for the brit teams to race like this. think thomas and cummings have actually come up best of the brits (downing has been good in the springs and will be a great sky signing, but i mean in terms of animating race these 2 look like taking a step up) but ebh is in a different league. i think sky could be a big force next year
