Super strong start to tourdefrance for lance!! Wa lau this year's tdf is gonna be fantastic mann!! Lance claims that he's never been fitter..and that he would make use of the first time trial to gain a gap over his rivals..and tadaa he did exactly just that!! the two minute interval between the staggered starts didnt stop armstrong from catching up ANd OVERTAKing Jan Ulrich!! wa enormous psychological blow to ulrich man. His pride is how hurt la. Joseba Beloki is back!!! i hope he has recovered from his 2003 tdf fall mannn...he's how pro..hope he has returned to form la..den i can support him after lance retires..well now too early to say la its onli the first stage.

Tyler Hamilton has retired this year..sad..good cyclist..lost his chance last year after hurting his back in a fall.. and his beloved dog tugboat died halfway thro the tour..sad for him man..after htat him and 2 other csc riders expelled from cycling for doping. sad. Mario Cipollini has also retired. Floyd landis has left discovery for phonak. this year i tink tmobile is quite strong. got vinokourov,ulrich and kloden. Phonak quite dead even tho landis joined cos hamilton left anyway. ah liberty seguros i hope they do well man, former armstrong mate heras..and Joseba Beloki!! I pray that Beloki would be on form this year. CSC may be quite strong, with bobby ulrich and carlos sastre. Go sastre too!

Alot of ppl also seem quite off form at the start of this year tdf. Ivan basso exhausted himself at Giro..
