As predicted, it looks like Stage 4 of the Paris Nice has played out to be the stage to watch. This morning it’s all about Cadel Evans on cyclingnews.com and other related sites. I had hoped but didn’t post it in my Paris Nice 2008 that Cadel would take the line honours on the stage from Montélimar to Station du Mont Serein Mont Ventoux.

It turns out that the Mont Ventoux climb is the first big test for the climbers in the 2008 season. It’s looking good for Cadel having tested his legs and taking the days win.
