    That motorbiker looked in a VERY bad way. I hope he's OK.

    Oh grief. I have to close my eyes watching the descents of the Tourmalet.

    For all I could see due to the mist I might as well have had mine closed as well.

    Have the leaders over the Tourmalet done enough to put themselves in pole going up the Hautacam or are we in for a race?

    It looks great, but could hardly see anything last week.

    Remi will get caught. Big shoot out to come. Ricco again looks most likely.

    Cancellara will be there to assist either Frank or Andy Schleck when they catch him on the descent of the Tourmalet, i.e. tow them at speed to the foot of the Hautacam.

    Oi, Bjarne - concentrate on driving the car instead of posting on here.

    Ricco says he's "tranquilo" today and isn't riding to win - Reckons Peep-Holy is the man
    .

    I can hear the cyclingfansanonymous sneer machine starting as Valverde's tour falls to pieces. Disappointing.

    Looks like it, his lead over the top already halved. What a great stage!!

    Maybe premature, Valverde's now whipping the peloton along at a cracking pace. Maybe he'll have something left with 15km to go?

    The Cancellara chasing group is taking back 1 second every 50 mtres or so out of the lone breakaway.

    wonder if ricco is gonna try another jump off the front today.. if he is then he will need to do it 5 or so miles from the top. Was I hearing right when they said on Eurosport that ricco made up more then a min up front within 1 mile?

    CSC having a great day, but they'll look silly if Ricco/Piepoli cruise off the front.
    .... or they take nothing out of Evans.

    On the other hand, his innuendo machine will be going into overdrive as Jens Voigt is suddenly transformed into Charly Gaul.
  • IF Jens isnt clean we may as well end the sport right now

    I doubt it very much though

    Didn't Bella Jorge make some very pointed comments about Jens?

    One Schleck attacks, the other Schleck hits the wall. This is Ricco's stage for sure.

    I cursed Ricco. He's disappeared.

    Great ride so far by Vandevelde.

    Yes, nice to see Lance's former domestiques coming out from his shadow and riding well for themselves

    How exciting.

    I do wish Cadel would crack properly though.
