Chris horner.
I was wondering if Horner had someone working for him, do you guys think he could of placed better in the TOC?
Do you think he could of knocked Levi off the podium? None the less, Im a huge fan of Chris and hope he has does well in the TDF!

He looked great at the Tour of the Basque earlier this year. Unfortunately, Levi is the guy for TRS. Everyone will support him even if someone is riding better.

I'm not sure Chris can go 3 weeks w/o falling off. He's not an explosive climber and doesn't TT well enough to win that way.

Well, Levi was a 3-time defending champion, so he deserved to defend his title. What made you think Horner was riding better?

My point about everyone supporting Levi was more directed at how TRS will be organized. Levi is the guy and he'll be supported. JB proved last season in the TdF that they'll follow a "team" strategy even if its not designed around the best rider. Anyways, I really don't want to drag up the whole Astana thing from last year.

Yah, I hope he can stay upright! I got to meet him at a pizza place here in Bend and he was just recovering from an injury. He seems to be a pretty cool guy!
