This years tour was a amazing and I belive next year will be just as good. I mean, you have Ullrich back into great form, Vinokourov and Hamilton are both right there on Armstrong and Ullrichs heels, and if Beloki can make a full and speedy recovery (which I sincerly hope he does) then he'll be up there fighting hard as well. So I think the fighting for the Yellow jersey will be even more intense next year...

As for the green jersey competition, all I have to say is that if Petacchi would learn to climb enough so that he could make it through the tour, then I think he could definatly make that race even more interesting.

Oh yeah, I also think that in a few years Denis Menchov should be making an appearance on the podium for the GC. With a win in the young riders classification by over 40 minutes to his nearest competition, he took the white jersey without any competition. Looking forward to see what he does in the future...
