So who's going to win the TdF?

[nochain]

MWNN do you have him in black????

[Jimmy]

What about Andy Schleck??

[nochain]

Andy won't be a factor after the giro and he's way to young for the tour ,but he's brother Frank might cause some upsets.

 

MWNN you could have just said sorry, I don't have one in black!!!!

[Jimmy]

How old is he now? 21? 20? Still think he could take a stage

[Hendrik Petoors]

MWNN I have one of me in a black speedo????? Ya willing to pay?????

[Man with no name]

Oi HP, ....uhm..... I think you're bluffing - show and tell!

[Pieter Henning]

Will Andy Schleck be riding? It will be a dumb move from team management if they let a 22-year old ride two Grand Tours in a year. Especially the tour and the Giro, and after how hard he went in the Giro.

for those who went for vino, you may have missed this:

Tour de France hopeful Alexandre Vinokourov's bid for the yellow jersey has suffered a potential setback with the news that German team-mate Matthias Kessler could miss the July 7-29 race.

Kessler of the Astana team has tested positive for the banned hormone testosterone at a random doping control, the team said Wednesday.
Kessler, 28, who last year won his first Tour de France stage for the German T-Mobile team, has been suspended by the Kazakh-Swiss team until the result of a B sample is known.
Kessler was tested by the international cycling federation UCI at a random control on April 24 in Charleroi, Belgium.
UCI last week said it was increasing its random doping controls of top riders ahead of this year's Tour de France.
All riders have been asked to sign an anti-doping declaration if they want to compete at the Tour which starts on July 7 in London.
Last week, Astana's Kazakh cyclist Alexandre Vinokourov defended the team against reports concerning the team's behaviour.
Vinokourov, who is regarded as a top Tour favourite, had responded to a statement by the anti-doping manager of UCI, Anne Gripper, who said six or seven riders had undergone three or four snap drug tests in recent weeks because of their suspicious behaviour.
Three of these riders had been nicknamed "Men in Black" because they were training in black jerseys, rather than their team uniforms, allegedly to avoid being recognized by drug testers.
The statement appeared to target Astana riders, who wear black while training in southern France.
But Vinokourov said wearing black jerseys was merely to avoid being recognized by "cyclotourists."
Vinokourov was forced to quit last year's Tour after five Astana riders were expelled from the race because of their alleged involvement in a Spanish doping scandal.

Kloden 1st,  Schleck 2nd or 3rd (if he starts). Vino will be in the mix, but I agree that he lacks, er race craft, and he will suffer due to the above (wasn't aware of this, thanks HR)

Yeah right - riders wearing black amongst the bright turquoise group of Astana riders won't stick out like a sore thumb...

Maybe someone can attach a survey poll to this thread with 10 names. I don't know how so it's up to you guys or Admin.
