Thanks for the post. That's friggin awesome.

I love when they have to climb "neighborhood" hills. Doesn't make me feel so pathetic about the roads that I ride.

Also, the fact that he's actually panting/huffing makes me feel like those guys are human... or course, it took 20%+ gradient to make it happen, and only 19 tooth rear. :crap:

That was great. Must've been filmed a year ago or something. Sad that Robbie won't actually be in the race. But really have to wonder if he'd be there at the end - those hills are f---ing brutal!
Picks - yeah, Gilbert. Cancellara. Evans. A Schleck.
If the sprinters are better climbers than I think they are, then Friere and Cav, too, I guess.

That's no sprinter's course! Even pro tour sprinters will be spit out the back before the finish. Going to be an interesting race.
