Contador wins...
Cadel beat him by a little more than a minute in the 1st TT. Contador
has a bit less than 2 minutes in hand. With the Mailloit Jaune on
his back and Bruyneel giving him the old "Venga! Venga!" routine I
don't see how Contador loses (unless, of course, he joins the ranks of
Vino, Rasmussen, et. al.)Stage 13 results
1 A Cheater 1.06.34
2 Cadel Evans 1.14
7 Alberto Contador 2.18
9 Levi Leipheimer 2.39
11 Another cheater 2.55 -

Actually "E Cheater" is Rasmussen who has yet to test positive for
anything so perhaps I should have labeled that one as "A Liar"
instead. -

It could be close.Evans is in the prime of his career with a lot of muscle memory to carry him
along on a LONG TT. Contadore is a skinny climber who has the advantage of
youth and enthusiasm.My guess is that Evans will be the first Australian to win the yellow
jersey. -

The key question is, where does David Millar finish?
The rest follows from there,

That depends on whether Disco all get into their team bus tomorrow and go
home.For next year's tour, the team of each successive stage winner should be
eliminated automatically, thus saving all this tedious messing about with
drug tests. Whichever team is left on the last day then get to race
amongst themselves for the yellow jersey, before being disqualified.--

The first TT was hilly, as a result the Spaniad put in a blinder BUT still
lost time to Evans. Cadel has had virtually NOT team support for the entire
mountain stages but smanaged to only lose a few of minutes. The boy is
STRONG! A bit like Lemond in 1989. Evans will win the Tour just like
Lemond in '89. I say 12''.........Go Evans!

and these dipshits will all be outta work,. Then they will have some
'fondos' that anybody can ride in, kinda like ride the rockies, and if
the dopers want to win that, let 'em. Big money is the problem. If
there wasn't such huge $ rewards, these guys or any pro in any sport
wouldn't try to dope.Quoted message said:

And technically, MR still holds the yellow jersey till he fails to
make the time cut today? Right?Quoted message said:

Use the right terms -- it's "time trialierist"
"Timeliest trialer"
