Banned.
No TdF stage threads from USA Zorro this year?
As for the prologue, Wiggins will be pleased, Evans will be more or less content, Cancellara is back. And I'm confirmed in my opinion that Froome is going to have a big tour.

Nice job Spartacus! I think he would have beaten Tony Martin even if Tony hadn't flatted.

Thanks Dstrong for posting the stages. I came here after the race and was so disappointed to see that no one had posted a thing. Half the fun of watching for me is interacting on BF. None of my friends are into bike racing so I like to discuss the races here.
Spartacus was awesome. I agree, he would have beaten TM anyway.

I can't take Menchov seriously as a contender any more, he seems to have lost his desire. And I think we can forget about Schleck. At this rate he might lose an hour in the TTs!

I don't disagree. And Froome will be supporting Wiggins, but I included him in case Wiggins falters.

Got to stand about 65 meters before the finish line. What an amazing day. Weather was perfect. Quite the roar when Wiggins rolled by taking the lead by .4" but it was unbelievable when Cancellara came through and crushed everyones time.

Would Tony Martin be wearing the yellow jersey today if he hadn't taken Specialized's bribe to use their new ultralight clincher tires?
