With no high road around I reckon CSC or Astana for the win, and I think CSC will just about take it, but not too much of a time gap.

Why isn't Chipotle riding?
As they aern't there, Astana shits this stage in. And people don't have to worry about so called biasim - Columbia aern't here. |

I suspect that Liquigas will put in a good performance, although I doubt they will win it.

typo on my part. apologies. TTT of course and it will be interesting to see which team sets out it's stall first. QuickStep with Bettini and Boonen listed in their line up, might be a bet? CSC have selected another strong team. Lampre too have some excellent TT riders : Bruseghin, Ballan etc.

Re: 2008 Vuelta : Stage 1 : Granada-Grananda : 7Km (ITT)
Apparently it is a flat course so i would have thought it might be one for the sprinters' teams as they have to be able to do this during a sprint stage? (i know its not quite that simple but you know what i mean)

What happened to Astana and why is Euskaltel in second place?
