Carried over from the other Basso Giro Thread.
http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=54062
Thought we could start a thread about the TDF.
Note, as always I'd like to see a separate Stage thread too, for each stage.
Now then, have at it.
My prediction: Lance enters the TDF last minute, and wins. Any takers?

I predict a pileup in one or more of the early stages.

I predict Lemond and Indurain to battle it out after Merckx drops out due to poor conditioning.

I predict that some unknowing maggot will post a spoiler for a critical stage that some of us haven't watched yet. Not that that would keep me from watching it anyway, but it does take away the suspense.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

Kirk Obee. He got third place in a stage at the Peace Race.

Basso wears Yellow in the end, the fight for 2nd and 3rd on the podium is wide open right now, with probably 5-10 guys that could end up there...Landis, Jan, Levi, Big George, Cunego, Vinny, Poppy, Simoni....

I am less convinced about Basso after the Giro - I think he blew his wad. You just can't win two big stage races in one year anymore (watch me get proved wrong) - I think its Jan or Vino (if he can find a team)...
