BelgianBoy Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 limbo said:When does it start? BB? Yep, Zaad posted that answer already...... And if Lance will have no injuries, he will win again. Der Jan was pathetic in the tour of Switzerland last week, and I can only hope that Ivan Gotti will rise to the occasion. See ya here. BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limbo Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Thanks Zaad, That's very comprehensive, exactly what I needed. Again a team time trial, how do i hate them, absolutely uselss IMHO and the TDF is the only place in the friggin world where they do this silly stuff. BB, Guess Lance has the best cards at the moment. Who won in Switzerland? Missed that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
