    They have been lucky to avoid having a rain storm by now. I live about 50km away from Annecy and there is a huge thunderstorm rolling across the mountains behind my village right now.

    Must have been Bertie's turn to get the moped blood bag delivery this morning.

    find it hard to believe contador can crush guys like cancellara and wiggins on a flat section of course like that

    very suspicious....i know he's a great rider but doesn't this seem too good?

    Let's wait. He might pay for it later.

    sorry, but i agree. I always try to give peolpe the benefit but that's dodgy unless he dies badly in the latter part of the course. FFS he's not even got to the hill yet!!!

    It's 3 weeks into a grand toure, recovery plays a big part and isn't even.

    It would have been sweet if Lance started second last, so we could watch manana banana overtake him.

    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos

    Well, you know that they are 2nd / 3rd in the Tour; you reckon they could get a camera on one of them FFS.
