ok, so the results of the tour de france prologue are as follows:

1. Fabian CANCELLARA
2. Andréas KLÖDEN
3. George HINCAPIE
4. Bradley WIGGINS
5. Vladimir GUSEV

the commentators took great care to explain that no rider will wear #1 this year......in fact...it didn't appear that anybody was wearing 1-10...the fellow who finished second last year is wearing #11.....such is the distancing these folks are putting between last year's tour (still in arbitration) and this one.....hopefully this tour will finish unblemished, for the sake of the entire sport.....
