Yeh, but the "Contre la Montre" is quite rightly known on the continent as the "Race of Truth", so surely even the Team Time Trial is one of the most crucial and revealing aspects of the Tour. This especially so cause the "lesser" members of the teams are critical to the overall performance, and must pull their weight.Originally posted by steve
Thats a really good point, I got the impression most of the top riders would have prepared beter than those of a few years ago. How much closer would the tour be with no TTT?
