But I don't, for better or worse, think the US will be displacing the TdF or the Vuelta any time soon. That said, I'd love to see the ToC muscle its way into the premiere early season slot, perhaps pushing off a few of the classics a couple/few weeks. I'd be quite happy to see it replace the Het Volk as the start of the real season. I think that would, indeed, be a great race.

I never sign email petitions (and I kind of hate Leipheimer) but thanks for the heads up anyway. Jeremy and I were lamenting the really terrible weather in the Tour of California this year, but also noting that if the European race organizers continue to make the whole sport stupid year after year, maybe the Tour of California could be moved to the summer. Then they could ride the Sierras (who needs the Alpe d'Huez if you can ride the old Donner Pass?) and Yosemite and all the places that are likely to be snowbound in February. It would be a phenomenal tour if they could only take advantage of all of California's landscape rather than just the coast and Central Valley. Yikes.
