Andy set to tie Jan Ullrich’s 3 consecutive White jerseys.
Geraint Thomas of Wales (SKY) started out quite well as 2nd to Andy, but fell off the pace after the first week. He was impressive in the TT today. ~2/3 of the Top 10 yoots are 25 this year, so Geraint may have a very good White Jersey year in 2001.
