(Sing it to yourself to the tune of Tom Petty's Free Fallin')

This is my favorite discipline in cycling; the long time trial. I dig the high zoot equipment, the aerodynamics and the suffering. Most of all, I dig the purity of it. One man, against the clock, all alone, no place to hide, no tactics. Just pure strength and sheer willpower. So who's going to win today? Hmmm...

Landis
Zabriskie
Rodgers
Hincapie
Evans

Levi will finish in the top ten somewhere as will Lang, Gonchar and Salvodelli.

Landis will be in the yellow jersey at the end of the day and there will be three Americans in the top five. Doscovery may just end up with three guys int he top ten depending on how well Popo rides this thing. The Ace should close too. IT's going to be a nightmare come stage ten for the other teams.

I can't wait to watch the OLN coverage while I ride th trainer this afternoon.
