I have found, so far (three stages into it) that not having a "big name" cycalist out there makes for a more exciting race. However, I suspect I watch the Tour for entirely different reasons than others do. I actually got bored with Lance, as I did with Indurain. The team aspect of the race became a lot more interesting to me at those times.
I don't really have a favorite - except I have a love for George Hincappe and I think it would be nice to see Lance's right leg man do well. But, it's a toss up, and if these crashes continue, we may have either an incredibly exciting race or a really dull one.
Kessler's win yesterday was a sweet moment after he missed it by that much in Stage 2. And, the crashes yesterday were so awful!
Oops, I had to look up Kessler's name and learned about today's disqualification. Damn. Mum's the word until 11:00 pm.
