The American contingency appears to be very strong at the tour. I am a little disappointed that more of the elite euros didn't compete (ie. Ullrich, Basso, Mayo, etc.)
Leipheimer definitely hammered the prologue. A 4 or 5 second lead for such a short distance is huge.
And creekster, you're much too modest. Its the enthusiastic, rotund course marshall with his very own hat and whistle we should all be looking for.
