Re: Wednesday Open Thread (none / 1)

I think Saturday will be very close. Menchov looks to have ridden his way out of any chance though.

Life should consist in at least fifty percent pure waste of time, and the rest doing what you please.

Close - between Sastre and Evans, or Sastre and Schleck?

Re: Wednesday Open Thread (4.00 / 2)

Evans, I dont think Schleck is a good enough time trialist to compete with Evans. Evans isn't really far enough back for it Normally to be a challenge, I'd reckon on Sastre needing in excess of 2 minutes to beat Evans over the time trial distance, but he has been steadily improving over the last few years, and going into the time trial in Yellow should be good for about 30 seconds (BOE). so it's all looking very close.
