Is anyone else extremely excited for this year's second cycling grand tour? The first was damn exciting with Ryder Hesjedal taking home canada's first grand tour victory

I can't wait to see team BMC and radioshack/nissan/trek battle it out as the two top teams.

Any predictions? I see it coming down to the pyrenees and then of course the final time trial stage. Hopefully a Schleck can finally take home a yellow jersey

A Nigerian's gonna set a world record on the course, then have the record taken from him because it was 'wind-aided'

As improbable as it is that Ryder will win the tour I will be cheering like mad for him anyway.

Bit early? I certainly hope the Tour's more entertaining than the boring ass Giro this year.
