    Another day in the Alps.. another day without Schleck attacking. I guess he just can't.

    Cheering for Contador now, I appreciate his aggression. I hope he shows his teeth today too..

    Andy Schleck seriously doesn't want Sammy Sanchez with him at the top. That would be bad for him... but not Contador.

    Menchov is like some movie zombie. He's always just there, right behind the main protagonists, just grinding away remoreslessly.
    It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.

    I hope Andy/Saxo don't think he's gonna be able to take all his time on the tourmalet. Against Contador, i don't see how he could possibly take that much time on one climb.

    Not good form, but Schleck kicked it of, so?

    Hmm, maybe, but Bert saw the chain coming off. It's not as if Bert was already up the road. Seems unsporting to me, but hey, it's a race...

    Andy needs to calm down and let the bigger group he's in come back on the descent....

    Is it any different to Andy taking advantage when Bert was slowed on the cobbles by Frank crashing?

    No. No it's not.

    Why shouldn't they attack? Dropping a chain is nobody's fault but Schleck's. It's not bad luck, it's bad gear shifting.
