Should be a cracker. Some resources:
- start list! [I used to think CyclingStartlists.com was the coolest web site ever, but they just listed their sources and I'm not one of them. So take it with a grain of salt.]
- Weather: still looking fab.
- The winner better know how to sprint (Valverde). CN has been saying this course could fit either the sprinters or the climbers (Valverde). Both the U23 and Women's races were contested in (Valverde) sprints, albeit following significant selections. Prediction: the strongest, most versatile rider who can sprint will win (Valverde).
I'll join in as soon as I'm stupid enough to wake up. Have fun!!
