if floyd can get acclimated to his new hip and chris can stay off the tarmac then both could have
a good season. curious, regarding floyd's 2006 campaign, that he has not even
glimpsed a shadow of his previous "form" and that was done with a degenerative condition
present...
horner absolutely dominated the domestic scene here in the u.s. for several years. he's been close
to stage wins several times in europe (wanna say he won a stage in the tour of switzerland riding
for saunier-duval 03? 04? 05?). unfortunately, he's gotten injured at key points during the
seasons. when he has ridden, he's been a warrior-one of the more underrated riders in the peleton.
landis had a nice showing and was in contention for the overall in the vuelta (think it was 04) but
anything accomplished in his big year of 2006 is obviously in doubt.

i'll take horner this year.
