The Phonak Cycling Team will take part in the Criterium du Dauphiné Libéré, which the team considers its most important rehearsal for the Tour de France, with Floyd Landis as leader.
The eight day ProTour competition will begin in Annecy and includes the legendary Mont Ventoux on stage 4. There will also be a 42 km time trial in Bourg-de-Péage, and two more big mountain stages: the fifth between Sisteron and Briançon, and the sixth, between Briançon and La Toussuire.
