Here’s a quote…

“Astana manager Marc Biver when questioned whether he still held hopes of his team winning the Tour: “‘I don’t think so,’ he told reporters. ‘Let’s be realistic. Kloeden is not in the best conditions to ride. Nobody can say if they are in a position to finish the Tour, let alone the stage. It does not augur well. That’s life, that’s sport. There are moments of glory, moments of defeat. We’ve been struck by fate. Today we hope for better news.’”

My money was always on Kloeden, so what do I think now? Could this be Valverde’s year I wonder?
