A thread to follow La Vuelta, which starts tomorrow
, with the Prologue taking place in Assen. Yes, that's Assen in The Netherlands
. None of the top 3 from 2008 will be riding, so who knows who'll win. Andy & Frank Schleck are riding, but have been claiming that they're not interested in the GC and instead would like to use La Vuelta as a springboard for the World Championship. Vino is back, but unlikely to be able to compete for the GC after two years out. Cadel Evans will be riding, but after the TdF, is Cadel's head shot to pieces? How about Basso? Anyway, I predict Cancellara win the Prologue. We'll find out tomorrow if I'm right.
