Ok, first time for years that we get to see MSR live on TV so enough postulating, who's gonna walk the walk and who's talking the talk?

Tough one. Freire and Petacchi were both impressive in Tirreno-Adriatico, as Boonen was in Paris Nice. But Cipollini was riding well on certain days in Tirenno...
I've gone for Oscar in the poll, but suddenly I've lost my confidence. So it's either him, Cipollini or Petacchi.
Doh! I'll never be a proper bike racing journalist. Embarassed

Why has no-one tipped Bettini yet? This shows how much MSR has changed over the years from a race decided by a guy who could attack on the Poggio and hang on over the top to a sprinters race. Perhaps if the finish line was brought back to nearer the bottom of the Poggio descent then we could see a lone winner again.
Also, Max Van Heeswijk is a possible outside bet for the sprint yet no-one has voted for him either? He's no better or worse than O'Grady for example Confused
