Frank & Morabito also acquitted themselves well. But for Evans to have a crack at overall, he needs better climbers to be able to support him.JV911 wrote: A full strenght BMC team will be good too with the likes of evans, hincappie and burghardt
Or is the BMC focus going to be more for jersey's & stage wins rather than overall ?

I heard the same. I didn't expect to see him anywhere near the TdF (this year). I think his giro performance was a bit unexpected.JV911 wrote:saxo said they dont want to burn him out being a rookie and all - might see him at the vuelta thoughnorbs wrote:I was hoping Porte might make an appearance somewhere

A RECORD number of Australians are in line to start the Tour de France on Saturday week. Four Australians were yesterday confirmed for the race - six less than the record of 10 Australians in 2005 and 2009 - with as many as 11 others likely to be confirmed in the coming days.
Joining Heinrich Haussler (Cervelo), the NSW-born German rider, among the confirmed Australians yesterday was teammate Brett Lancaster, Giro d'Italia King of the Mountains winner Matt Lloyd (Omega Pharma-Lotto), and Olympic team pursuit gold medallist Luke Roberts (Milram), who last rode the Tour in 2005.
Haussler, who last week crashed in the Tour of Switzerland the day after winning a stage, is a stage-winning hope, but he will also probably have to help Norwegian teammate Thor Hushovd's bid to win the green points jersey. Lancaster will also be there to help Hushovd.
Roberts's job will be to lead out his German sprinter Gerald Ciolek in the bunch finishes, and after that assist German Linus Gerdeman for the overall classification.
Lloyd is likely to be designated as one of Belgian top-10 hope hope Jurgen Van den Broeck's principal helpers for the mountains. Although, if opportunity knocks, he could be regarded as a potential stage winner in the mountains, or even an outside chance for the climbers category.
From the pool of Australians riding for the 22 teams invited to Tour, estimations are that at least 11 more will be confirmed.
That includes the two Australians candidates for the Tour podium overall who will certainly be officially named - dual Tour runner-up Cadel Evans (BMC) and Michael Rogers (HTC-Columbia), who was ninth in 2006.

Agree Michael. I don't think Cadel can win the overall, Radioshack and Saxo have far stronger teams and their leaders are just as good if not better. If the opportunity comes up to grab a stage or climb into the yellow jersey I think Cadel should go for it and not hold back thinking about the GC and the stages that follow.MichaelB wrote: Frank & Morabito also acquitted themselves well.

The Astana situation might be interesting again this year. We all know what Vinokourov likes to do when he's feeling good, leader or not, as Jan can atest to

And HTC have no Greipel either - now is this due to Giro (too buggered) and will do Vuelta instead, or because of rthe rift between him and Frodo ? Or a sign that he is negotiating with other teams .......
And murmurs that Boonen may not ride due to his knee injury..... I wonder if A Davis is chuckling a bit

or that Cavendick is in the team and would be hard to have two top sprinters competing for stage wins?MichaelB wrote:And HTC have no Greipel either - now is this due to Giro (too buggered) and will do Vuelta instead, or because of rthe rift between him and Frodo ?

@mcewenrobbie recon'd TdF st3 cobbled final w/ Stijn Vdb, going to be CARNAGE! The TdF will explode on this stage, will eliminate some GC & green riders
Will probably be one of the few early stages where I will watch the whole thing !!!!

I am hoping for a Dodger reawakening ...don't mind if Cadel grabs his coat tails.Hope LA has a great tour...2nd would be OK...AC to lose lots of time on the cobbles and then have to fight like a dog to get it back! (which I hope he does).Tommeke to ride well again finally!...and give Cav a run for his money...and for Basso to be right up there as well.
This tour has the most contenders in YEARS!!!...sweet .
Jack Bauer for president...or at least a protour contract!!!.

Maybe HTC and BMC can form a pact - BMC to help with the Green Jersey, and Cadel & Dodger to team up and gang up on Bertie & the Schlecklets....toolonglegs wrote: ...I am hoping for a Dodger reawakening ...don't mind if Cadel grabs his coat tails .....
I won't comment about being close to 7 stages ....
Enjoy !!!!

I know there's plenty of talk about Andy S and LA has the team, but imo if anyone can beat AC it's Basso.toolonglegs wrote:...and for Basso to be right up there as well.

I like the BMC team in general so I'll be cheering them on this year. I found it hard to like lotto, so only really cheered on cadel as an individual[and Italralian] It will be nice to be able to follow the whole team this time.
Anyway im really looking forward to it, its going to be so much more interesting this year now i know a little more about it and the riders.
