Martin Greipel, a young sprinter, was really good at the Down Under Tour which he won the second time. Besides him there are Markus Fothen, Andreas Klöden, Jens Voigt, Linus Gerdemann, Tony Martin and others who are good for top positions.
Unfortunately Linus Gerdemann crashed on the first stage of the Ruta del Sol. Before the crash he was in the first group and showed his good shape. Maybe it will be him and tony martin who will be the best german at the Tdf besides Andreas Klöden. We will see...

For sure, there are more good german cyclists. If you like to discuss their performance or their chances to become a pro please post this here. Hopefully I am not the only "Radsportfreak" who is interested in this

If somebody thinks that this thread would be better in the german discussion part it must be switsched there. I can't open a new thread in the german part. That's why I opened this thread here
