Isn't this the same guy that said he'd bury Lance Armstrong in the mountains? I think the only way that will happen is when Mr. Armstrong dies of old age, had requested to be entombed in a mountainside somewhere, and Mr. Simoni was requested to be one of the pall bearers.

peaked wrong? I think he peaked fine, only it was for the Giro. I think we're just seeing how hard it is to perform at your best in back-to back grand tours. There's a reason Lance doesn't ever do the Giro or Vuelta anymore-the same reason Tyler skipped the Giro this year. I think it was a bit optimistic(foolish) on his part to think he could hold his form long enough to actually beat Lance, Beloki and everyone else who has focused on the Tour. I give him credit for trying, but he probably should have waited to open his mouth until seeing how his legs felt after the 1st mountain stage.
