Either Leipheimer or Landis will make it 8 straight American wins in a row :D |

The Australians never have any chance on the general classification, so I'll be going for O'Grady or Robbie McKewin for the green jersey.
I'm not sure if SouthAustralia.com is entered, I really don't think they are as I think they only do the more minor races. But if they're there I'll be supporting them too.
I've spent quite a few nights staying up watching the Tour each year. |

I love the TDF, even more so when it's dominated by an American. :D (The irony of that always made me smile). It'll be weird not having Lance there. I've been following since the Greg Lemond days, I think it's the most grueling sport in the world. Someday I hope to catch it in person. That's cool that you're gonna see it this year Ben.
I haven't followed the newest American riders yet but I will look before the race starts. |

Stage 14 : Montelimar to Gap
I think this year is great. I was a huge Lance Armstrong fan not only for him being the best cyclist ever but also for his work for cancer. Also everyone used to support him I really dont think anyone disliked him something never seen in sport.
Also we could see a Kazakstani win....and his name is not Borat...shame :stongue: |

Banned, as well as Comunitat Valenciana, for being involved in the doping affair 'Operación Puerto'.
EDIT: Allowed to be in the TdF presentation, waiting for TAS decision about the team.
Personally, I don't think there are enough balls to ban such politically strong team (Kazakhstan government sponsors Astaná), with Vinokourov as the main rider. They will be in Le Tour, I think. |
