Default So who wins the ITT tomorrow?

Personally I'm just hoping for some excitement. The last few days have been a bit of a yawn. Maybe Jan will move up to the #2 spot? Rassmussen will be out of the top 10?

Im guessing Lance will win a stage...Finally. With Jan in 2nd in the race and overall.

That's pretty much what I expect/hope for, also. Best of luck...

It may not be Lance, but I know he'll get the 7th win. And Basso 2md. Ullrich 3rd.

I pretty much agree with you. I am glad that this year there are some positions that are still being fought for. Rasmussen who deserves so many accollades for making things so interesting, whether or not he can hold off Ullrich. Ullrich himself, who has shown so much determination. (I am so tired of hearing that he is not mentally prepared to beat Lance, Lance is better prepared physically and that is it.) Leiphemer has had a great tour. There is a battle for 7th and 10th place. Basso has further improved from last year, but he is still slightly inferior to Armstrong at the ITT and in the mountains. He should lose another minute today I imagine.

I think the final GC will be LA, IB, JU, LL, AV, FL putting 3 Americans in the top 6. GH and BJ will probably end in the top 15 as well making that 5 Americans in the top 15. Yes cycling is over for us Americans after Lance departs.

I was kind of wondering the other day why we didn't see much of Rassmussen as he was out wining the KOM title when I remember seeing Richard V. all the time. Then it hit me. Richard V. was French...
