Levi can have the whole of Disco at his disposal as he is a lock for
7th in the 2007 Tour de France.


The course suits Levi this year - no killer climbs that would bury him
- but he usually has 2-3 bad days in the Tour regarless of the
course...and in the Tour, you can't afford to have 1 off day. I
believe the ITT will actually play to his new TT form. He'll blowup
on the third mountain stage.


Paolo, stop repeating those stupid ideas. When you were racing against
Indurain or Armstrong you couldn't have a bad day. Everyone else had bad
days and The Pirate won on Ullrich's bad day after having a couple of them
himself. Riis won on Indurain's bad day only because Indurain was losing his
will to race. Hell, maybe you forgot LeMond winning in '89 after having a
couple of bad days or in '90 after having diarrhea for a day or two.

You can't afford to have a bad day AT THE WRONG TIME. And that's what it's
like in every other race as well.
