Stage 7: Barcelona - Andorra Arcalis Thursday, July 09, 2009
Hooray! We're going into the mountains. Although... it's not that much fun, with all those crazy guys riding for a team from Kazachstan. Blergh, they're taking all the fun out of it! Anyway, let's hope for some fireworks anyway. Maybe these little bumps can take care of that:
As expected, an uphill sprint (although it looked like Millar might do a 'Voeckler' there). Too bad about all the rain though, made it all a bit too slippery.

Stage 6: Gérone - Barcelona Wednesday, July 08, 2009
No sprint this time, haha! Although maybe an uphill sprint. Just look at this:
Looks like we're going to get some different names here, some more classical riders. I'm hoping to see someone like Rigoberto Uran setting off some fireworks here, with Valverde being absent.

Stage 5: Le Cap d'Agde - Perpignan (recap)
Well, that was epic. Good to see Voeckler finally winning a Tour stage - too bad about Gesink though. We'll probably see a lot of him next year.

Well now, if someone from Astana doesn't win the Tour now... I'll eat my socks. :P

Stage 4: Montpellier - Montpellier Monday, July 06, 2009
A team time trial. Sky-high favourites are... Team Columbia. What else is new?
...well, maybe Astana, Garmin, and Saxo Bank have a chance, but... I just can't see anyone beating Columbia. That team is crazy strong.

Stage 3: Marseille - La Grande-Motte (recap)
Wow wow wow... well, there was a sprint, but there were only two sprinters! Really fantastic work from team Columbia today, with the 'waaier' (don't know the English word for it... not even sure there is one :P). Also fantastic to watch! This is promising for the rest of the Tour - it won't be an open and shut case, that's for sure!

I'm guessing it'll be another sprint. You can never be sure of course, but, this is what I think.

Stage 2: Monaco-Brignoles (recap)
As expected, a sprint. As expected, Cavendish wins. So far, it's a straightforward Tour.
