    The provisional startlists are up on Cycling Fever… Looks like the opening stages could be tricky to predict – bumpy but with flat finishing sections. Stage 5 TT will shake things up, and then stages 6 and 7 have the bigger hills to decide the GC. At first glance there are a lot of strong sprinters and TTers, and 4-5 US teams we haven’t seen much of this season so far, but maybe only a handful of riders (Horner, Liepheimer, Nibali, Van Garderen, Gesink, Lulu Sanchez) competing for the overall. But what do I know…

    I assume with the Giro
    I assume with the Giro running at the minute they’re waiting for the start list to be some what final before adding it to the site. It saves having to update it every day when it changes.

    Its been like that for a few days though, I will get worried if its not fixed by midweek. I have a team in as I did it the day the startlist came out. But decided I want to make a change or 2

    Nibali would be favourite for the Giro if he were riding, saving it for the Tour…

    One of AMGENs main money spinners is darbopoetin, which is related to EPO. I am sure this was deliberate by them,somebody with a sense of irony on the board. They also make life extending other drugs like monoclonal antibodies By…The…Way
