    Potentially a bit of a fun stage. Once back up Independence Pass to tire everyone out, then a lot of downhill before a couple of little climbs in the 2nd half and the final ramp up to Beaver Creek (4km at 7% avg).

    Will Garmin have a big presence in the break with CVDV in yellow? Answer: probably yes, because they don’t really seem to give a crap about saving legs in this event and they’re just going to try to do everything.

    Will Leipheimer or Horner do something on the final climb?
    Answer: Probably not. They’ll wait for stage 6, and also not take enough time to scare TJVG for the TT.

    Would this race be more exciting WITHOUT a final day TT?
    Answer: Absolutely. And yes, I know that’s strange.

    Anyway, since I’m in 2nd overall (insert blind squirrel joke here), I better take this a little seriously today. Here’s the team:

    Danielson
    van Garderen
    Leipheimer
    Horner

    Vande velde
    Rovny (for Tschopp)
    Dombrowski
    Caruso
    Euser

    Who you got?
