Stage One of the Tour of California starts in the city of Davis and meanders towards Santa Rosa, the hometown of Astana's primary general classification threat Levi Leipheimer. Don't put your money on any hometown heroics today though. The stage finish in Santa Rosa is probably going to end in a bunch sprint. Teams are too strong to let an early break stick in such a competitive race even this early, so expect Colombia and Quick Step to pull things back together for Cavendish and Boonen.
Still, weather could be a factor and it would not come as a suprise were yesterday's prologue winner Fabian Cancellara to pip the sprinter trains and capture another stage.
Stop by either of our locations to watch all the action unfold, and if you happen to see Lance Armstrong's stolen Trek Equinox time trial bike-please alert the authorities!
