  1. It would be nice to see the size of the teams reduced forcing more emphasis on the indivual riders and less on the team. The beauty of the year's TDF, was watching riders have to ride on their own since many teams were weakened by the scandal. This most likely lead to a record tying number of times the Yellow jersey changed hands and some exciting stages.

    Would like to see more mountain days as the long flats usually lead to watching
    the peloton walk guys down in the last 5k. What's the point?

    Get the camera out of the Team cars. Today's TT was ruined for me when I saw Team Phonak radioing to Landis where to ride hard and where and when to brake. Is anything left to the rider anymore and enough with the frickin trainers's views while broadcasting the race. Sound like a bunch of Homers.

    Agreed. Pro cycling in general should lose the minute by minute rider-team manager radio communication.
