Nope, Petacchi is 100% not selected for the Giro - you didn't pick him, so no error on my part - otherwise, it would have made the sprints more wide open, but McEwen would still be favourite

Come on Bouygues, a TTT victory would be impressive - a guaranteed 6 PT points

To copy Addy and moan about sprinters: Robby Hunter is better than Goss, he shouldve been mentioned.

Well, it's just Goss has a whole team working for him, and he may spring a surprise - and as I said before, I ran out of room

I can agree in that, but thinking of the races that could have been won, but weren't - I'm thinking negative about this. 
EDIT: But of course, We've got victories, some teams haven't.

Can I ask why you picked Hushovd, Davis and Bettini? 3 strong sprinters?
Dont get your hopes up about Bettini's GC Hopes, he only has 68 MO.

Oh and Crommy, I believe with 79 Sprint, JJ Haedo is the actual leader of CSC

1. It fitted, and think about that train!
2. The reason for that is that I managed 3rd place in the Giro with Bettini.
I know this is controlling itself, but that's how it is. |

Gratz to SidGarcia!
Even better news for you Sid is that your Norwegian - Hushovd is in Pink

At least I beat you SN. That's the only consolation I will probably take in this year's Giro.
I best Saunier Duval in the prologue

It was not a TTT that we wanted to win.
Anyone know why the young riders jersey is Blue?
