Vlad Vlad Leroy Brown


Back in February of '08, on this blog, Mongo touted Vladimir Karpets as a Grand Tour contender for that season. Unfortunately, injury and sucking kept him from fulfilling his promise.

He's rounding back into good form this year and just finished second in the Tour of Romandie. Karpets was buried on
Caisse d'Epargne behind Valverde and Pereiro, but now he' the only legit GC guy on Katusha. Look for good results this Summer from the "Mulletov Cocktail"(I'm trademarking it...don't even think about it!)
