  3. Bold, I'll come up with something, since you're the only one brave enough to enter (although I did get one somewhat puzzling off-line entry proposing this was Grenoble/Courchevel, 2005, by Graham Watson.

    I'm researching the correct answers. Here are some clues:

    There is no snow.

    I don't see a yellow jersey anywhere near the front. Not sure if the light blue shorts are Disco or Gerolsteiner, but either way they do not appear to be escorting LA, so I do not think it's the TdF.

    Based on that, I think it's the Tour de Swiss. The flag lends to this theory.

    However, it looks more like one of the epic passes from the Giro.

    The phantom noted a Fasso Bortolo jersey in there, indicating this is not last year.

    The green jerseys look more like Liquigas than Kelme.

    All these bikes are heavier than yours. Bastard.
