    Don't know about you but it's exciting stuff.

    It's good, but not quite up to San Luis standards.

    Les Gets is a great name for a band.

    Will they now do battle, up to Avoriaz or continue to grind out a hardish tempo?

    Thanks, guys, you're all faster, more informative and funnier than any of the live stage reports I've found!

    Am stuck on the world's hottest train.

    Climb isn't too hard so we might a big group. Maybe an outsider can sneak away but the trio up the road have a cushion.

    Nice. Just saw a man dressed as a dalmation. Another one to add to the list.

    Lance has given up. The end.
    Nice waste of either Brajkovic or Horner.

    Maybe Horner, but Jani got dropped before LA did.

    Certainly not me i asked you if you were new to racing, that was not infantile it was based on your strange comment regarding Chris Horner .

    Armstrong looks like he's had enough, in no hurry to get back on his bike there.

    In the case of JB he was out the back before LA.

    Don't think LA actually fell but he came to a dead stop, tangled in a couple of carrots.

    Armstrong's crashed more times in one stage than in all his previous Tours.

    Have to put the 2 P's on, just for the entertainment value.
