Astana announced their NINE for the TdF today. It's an amazing roster - o-ne of the best ever assembled for any bike race.
  • Lance Armstrong (USA)
  • Alberto Contador (ESP)
  • Andreas Kloden (GER)
  • Levi Leipheimer (USA)
  • Dmitriy Muravyev (KAZ)
  • Sergio Paulinho (POR)
  • Yaroslav Popovych (UKR)
  • Gregory Rast (SUI)

Most of these guys have podium finishes under their belt. Two have won the Tour. Contador has one all three of the Grand Tours - one of only five men to do so. Leipheimer has won the Tour of California three times.

Can't wait for July 4th. Go Astana!
