With this years Tour de France fast approaching, as I am planning to cycle at least parts of the route myself for charity with some friends later in the Summer/Autumn, I am taking a bit more interest in the event this time than I normally would.
As all attention turns to 4th July start of Le tour, news has emerged Valverde is set to miss the tour due to a ban imposed upon him by the Italians, as the tour pushes into Spain and Italy this time round.
I was just wondering who is most likely in your opinion to win the 2009 tour. Can Lance Armstrong win another Le Tour title? I will say either "Alberto Contador" or "Carlos Sastre", but I dont know if either of these two are definately confirmed for Le tour yet.
