Anyone following this sporting event? Starts today with a normal ride (big suprise no time trail) and basically everyone with a chance to grab yellow. But the mountain-stages still are coming so excitment ahead. I think a potential top 5 could be:

1. Cadel Evans (Silence-Lotto)
2. Ricardo Ricco (Saunier Duval)
3. Andy Schleck (CSC)
4. Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d'Epargne)
5. Damiano Cunego (Lampre)

Five different teams, tough CSC probarly will be the strongest with also Carlos Sastre and Frank Schleck (older brother of Andy). Tough Valverde also brings old winner Oscar Pereiro with him. It can be a very open Tour de France I think. Exciting till the end.
