What a field for the Tour of California, supposedly the strongest field to have raced in the USA. A scroll through the startlist reads more like a Grand Tour than a stage race in it's second year. http://www.dailypeloton.com/displayarticle.asp?pk=10420
Points of interest:
- Trinity Grade climb on stage 2 which is 3ml (4.8km) @ 9%!
- Sierrra Road Cat 1 climb in stage 3
- Solvang ITT in stage 5, this is where Discovery have been training lately
- Stage 6 to Santa Clarita should see some attacking, being the last chance for GC progression
Any nominations for the overall? I reckon there are about 15 who could win it.
