hello there, first post.so after these hot flat stages,comes the time trial and i believe that the german will win it.(i believe hes riding like he was in '04),rasmussen will probably lose 4 to 5 minutes and they wont allow him to go for another stage(he doesnt stand a chance for yellow).valverde and contador will lose 2 or 3 minutes.they will wait for the pyrenees but i dont see them cracking evans and kloden.this time trial will show who will win the tour,its going to be a battle between klodi,evans and sastre.klodi deserves it .also i cant discount sastre because he can do a solid time trial. * i cant see valverde winning because he hasnt even gone into the third week of the tour yet!!

Yes, I hope Klodi continues to recover, gain strength and rocks them in the ITT!

Klödi has a broken coccyx, which means he struggles to accelerate, this will effect him greatly in the TT's, particulalry at the beginning, out of corners and maybe up the climb.

actually its a hairline fracture,it doesnt appearto be affecting him and im sure he will be alright. especially after another rest day following the time-trial.
