Tour 2007

We're almost ready for the main event and with a prologue start in London, it'll be the first time I've seen the Tour in England. I'm heading up there on Saturday for a wander around the race village, and hopefully cheer Bradley Wiggins to a triumphant prologue win (actually, my tip is Cancellara - but it would be un-patriotic not to back a Brit). With the field once again made up all of the survivors from the Puerto Affair, its a pretty open race. However, there's Vinokourov - strong in the Dauphine and with a good team behind him - this could be his year.
