Ryder will ride the Tour as Garmin's team leader.

Wow ... he will join a very elite group if he wins the Tour.

I'm guessing he won't be riding in the Olympics ... it opens 6 days after the TDF (and probably won't be worth any effort that he puts in).

Ryder is the guy for the Olympics.

I get why they are choosing Ryder, but I don't think he was the right choice for a legitimate chance of winning a medal.

Meanwhile, Tuft crushed the field by 2:08 today to win the national ITT title.

Pretty good turn out for Ryder's homecoming in Victoria this afternoon. Heard a few good stories about the Giro, and my two year old daughter, who got her first run bike last month, now has a Giro winner autographed helmet. Appropriately, it is pink, with ladybugs.
