Six Americans are in the field for the Criterium du Dauphine as it gets underway in France on Sunday. The race will begin with a 2.4 mile prologue on Sunday before seven more stages over the next week. The last three stages will all involve mountains so there could be a lot of excitement in the final stages of the race. The Americans in the field are headlined by Alex Howes who was 21st in the Liege-Bastogne-Liege race and Brent Bookwalter who was 35th in the Tour de Romandie.
