Still not stretchy enough for you, eh? Here's my dark horse, and yes, its my final answer - Mauricio Soler Hernandez Juan from Barloworld. Did anyone not named Skeletor climb better than him last year. Plus, if he would just drop all the extra weight of having to carry three last names up the hills, he would likely save several minutes in the GC.
SOler. Oooo, very, very stretchy. But not likely to be right. He climbed like a goat but that elbows out knees a kimbo style won't do him much good in an ITT. He may have enought o give us some Skeletor type excitement in the hills, but he is not a podium guy. To be honest, what has he done this season? I am not aware of his reacord this year.
