I can't wait for the tour. The giro was a nice warm up (watched on Universal sports, some NBC channel) and really showed how large the competition is for the GC in the tour. Liquigas has Bosso and Pellizotti. The Astana squad looks extremely strong (another team win if you ask me), and of course have Contador (who knows though with the financial issues) and Lance. Levi looks like he will be a big help, but I don't see him being in the top 8 in the GC because he's been in great form for so damn long (since feb). Sastre is looking great (look at his 2 stages win in the giro). I haven't seen the schleck brothers ride, but looking at their wins this year, I'd imagine them throwing down pretty hard. Menchov Also looks fantastic of course. He managed to never falter with Di Lucas repeated attacks.

I'm fucking excited.
