USA pro cycling challenge

Seems a rather nice route......however a complete lack of stars compared to DS's in the race! I count just 13 stars from the 16 teams, with 10 teams not having a single star....it could be quite fun

I think I'll be watching on the tracker from now on. Good coverage, even though I'm not a fan of the commentary team.

Click on any of the menu options like standings or teams and you can still listen to the race live. VERY good website. Why cant other races sort thing out?

Had Danielson, Nibali and Beltran in the break. Horner was my highest finisher. But my team is built for tomorrow, saving transfers for the day after and later on.

How Farrar can get over mountains in a US race when he can't get over a bridge in Europe is beyond me!!

I think Farrar was waiting a couple of km's out and joined the race there  3

The commentators couldn't see him in the pack until the last corner, the didn't think he was their, the tracker didn't think he was there......then BOOM  13

112 points, I think! Really good day thanks to Danielson and Stetina in the break plus Caruso and Horner, as well as some lower scorers in Infantino, Leipheimer and TJVG. Really like my team for tomorrow even better.

Also +1 on the tour tracker. I've always loved it. Glad it's available to the Euros here as well. It's only fair, since we generally only get to watch cycling via eurosport online.

Looks like some of the folks who fared well in the TdF, Olympics, etc. are finding the high altitude to be an issue. Noted, for next year.  26

Stetina gets the most active

Farrar leads everything apart from the KoM Danielson has that and someone from the Livestrong team has the young riders  3

Nah Zabriskie was just over 15 minutes down. No bloody wonder. I don't expect him to be racing tomorrow.

Anyone still watching on the tracker? All the guys getting their jersey's

It just showed Zabriskie emptying his guts all over the road  31

 14  14 at least sutherland should be there in stages when Farrar is not but everyone should have put him in after what i said earlier

Oh at least i called Bazzana being up there, so still ended up with 2,4,5, might have to axe fuglsang/velits though

Interesting start - a 22-man break formed, and have 3:30 with 55 miles to go. Nibali and Danielson were in the break, and have just gone away on their own...
Boily, Chicchi, Carlsen, Avis and Zach Bell have already abandoned the race. Looks like the whole race is live on the "Radioshack Tour Tracker" via the tour website.
