I don't really care one way or the other. I just brought my best arguments to the table. If you think the queen stage at this years TDF is tougher than leadville, then more power to you.
I still have $50 on my buddy at Fiesta Island!
Show me a tdf stage in the tour where a podium finisher has to walk his bike up a climb....yes in Leadville there are parts on the course where you have to walk the bike up...it's that much tougher than any tdf stage.
