Who do you think will do the surprise ride at the prologue?

Obviously the same names keep cropping up, but who do you fancy to do a good if unexpected ride?

I don't know if Levi falls into "unexpected", but I think he'll do a stormer.
Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    I think Wiggins will win it but how about the odds on a Hushovd repeat?

    I expect Bruseghin and Lokvist to get in the top 10. Contador will be up there too.

    And as there'll only be two seconds covering the top 10 I could see them toppling the favourites of Cancellara, Millar and Wiggins. But If I had to pick it I think the top three will be the Swiss big chin followed by the Scottish and English big 'eds.

    One should never discount Tornado Tom in a Prologue....

    I reckon Brett Lancaster could surprise again :lol:

    Not riding. Says he wants to ride for the Vuelta GC instead.

    As for a surprise ride, I have a feeling either O'Grady or Boonen will figure highly.

    Hmm - so much for my prediction :oops:

    Perhaps bennati could put in a good prologue, as in the Tour de Suisse :?:
