The only thing that might hurt him is the fact that this Tour (those
TdF idiots) is probably the easiest of the Tours since Lance started
winning. Hardly any mountain top finishes,

There are still two mountain top finishes left: Plateau de Bonascre
and Luz Ardiden, both 1st categorie climbs. Should be sufficient for
Mayo to catch up his 1:02 gap on Armstrong.

This could really hurt Mayo as his team is nothing compared to Postal.

Euskaltel wasn't that good at the TTT but they have excellent
climbers. They faired better at L'Alpe d'Huez than USP:
