    Hah, wow the peleton has disintergrated. The yellow jersey group is tiny now!

    Never really understood why anyone thought Tony could climb seriously well in the Tour.

    Martin dropped...hate to say I told you so. Great rider, just not a Tour GC contender.

    Really pleasantly surprised how well G's climbing, especially given the energy needed to get back on after those near ones on the descent...
    Back in White if he hangs on???

    Who's at the front of the peloton? Is Leopard-Trek grinding away still, trying to drop people?

    Jens never looks cooked, he's just superheating the air around him through the sheer power of his stroke.

    So gutted not to see how Wiggins would have done today. Him and G all the way up with the select few.

    That ramp to La Mongie is nasty and Thomas has monstered it!

    Yes, burning off all their riders and Bertie still has about 3 with him sitting in the bunch.
