I guess it's time to vote on Clifbar.com. Personally, I think it's Landis, Hincapie or Azevedo. Probably more Landis or Hincapie than Ace. So who do you all think should get it?

Landis this year.

Landis this year.

After today, definitely Landis. But Hincapie had probably been at the front in the mountains more than anyone. And Azevedo has done everything asked of him, but they didn't need him as much due to the strong team.

Landis, do you think he will stay with Discovery, or take the money and run?

I've been trying to find out who made the offer to Floyd.
Anyone know? First I heard of it was when my wife called to ask
(I was away from desk when it was mentioned)
can't find info on it anywhere.

Ohhh, that's nasty :)

Prior to today, Azevedo. Now Landis. Particularly appropriate if this is his swan song with USPS/Discovery.

It does appear he might be ready to ride for himself doesn't it?
