I'm pickign George for 2nd
He’s got the legs.

I’m quite interested in the leadership dynamic within Astana, and would prefer that things work out well for Levi.
Go Levi! Go Jens!! Go Tony! Go Stuey! Go George! Go Chris! Go CVV! Go Oscarito!
Yikes, it appears that I’ll be cheering for a lot of riders :-)
And I just can’t get over that yellow Columbia kit. Images of the movie TRON keep flashing before my eyes…

Thats exactly what i'm like normally...
Jens! would be a very nice suprise :-)

Rogers
Gotta support an Aussie and he is the best suited of the bunch for the overall.
That and I think (hope) that he’s had his run of bad luck and this is going to be a great year for him. He showed good form down under and I’m sure that Columbia wouldn’t mind a win in the TOC, so he’s probably been targeting this little race in Cali.
My bet?
Floyd Landis.
Laugh if you must.
Dollar bet anyone? You don’t even have to guess the winner!

I think the votes reflect a really good assessment on which riders have come to race
and which have come for training/publicity.
If OUCH defeats Astana...
that will be crazy, as Astana has a Tour caliber team here. And before people say that Astana has eyes down the road in July, don’t forget that Floyd’s road to the TdF that year, included winning the ToC.

Ok... That was so totally inapropiate..
Bauke Mollema.. It’s Dutch hero.. The sparkle in a black sky.. The red flower in the grass..
….
Ok.. I can not explain it.. But I’m gonna look for revenge… So watch your back…
Some say the best things in life, are one the inside.
I had him on my VDS team
but dumped him just the other day for someone who produced better last year. I think he’s got a future, but this might not be the year he breaks out big. (Feel free to clip ’n save this post to throw back in my face at the end of the season.)
Google is my domestique.
Rory Sutherland
Why? He can climb well enough to survive the big hills, and he’ll rip through the TT. I think it’s gonna be an American-based rider rather than a PT rider winning, and Rory is the stage racer here.
I picked.. Don't know why..
But I like the kid..

Doing the Amsterdam Marathon next year!
My wife is running it in under five hours, she hopes! She did Marine Corp in just over six.
I’m walking it, with a hoped time of under eight hours. Wink!

The obvious picks are Levi and Floyd.
This is Levi’s race to lose, and for Floyd, this is his Tour de France for 2009. Which is why I don’t think Rory Sutherland will be near the top; he’ll be helping Floyd. Though if Sutherland has a good TT, he could do well in GC.
But I’m sort of expecting that Garmin-Slipstream/Chipolte riders will be prominent on the TT results, as they likely will all year….If there were a TTT in this race, the whole team would be set up to do well in the GC.
Looks like
Jens is not here to contest this year. I was surprised that he didn’t try to contest the German Tour last year. Wonder if Jens is thinking about retirement.
Nope, he will be back next year...
and probably the year after!!!! YaY
