Time trial results...

OK, so I was wrong, and didn't pick this guy at all. Sergeui Gonchar riding for T-Mobile has taken the time trial, the first long time trial in the Tour de France, placing him at the top of the general classification (must be the breathe right strip he is sporting on his nose). As I mentioned in my earlier post from today it is going to be an interesting Tour, especially after today. Gonchar is at the top, Landis is sitting nicely in 2nd place. Could we have another American winner this year? Landis is looking good right now. We'll see.

There were of course some shake ups. I think we can firmly discount Mr. Hincapie now for the overall, as well as Leipheimer, they both took a big swing and a miss at today's time trial. Paolo Savoldelli rode decently for Disco, so he might now be the new team leader for Disco going into week #2. Very interesting Tour this year, very interesting.
