    I do dislike the continual repetition of Beloki's career ending crash when only Armstrong is mentioned because he managed to ride across a field.

    Come on Evans. Stick it to him.


    If these two don't sit up they are onto a winner.

    At last, we've got a real race!
    Remember that you are an Englishman and thus have won first prize in the lottery of life.

    Two and a half norwegians at the front then. They obviously like this sort of weather.

    Tommy V doing well protecting the jersey. Great racing.
    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    Respect.
    You might have had a response from a pro cyclist on Twitter, you may even have chatted to a 'journo', but ultimately, you still know nothing. You're not an insider, no matter how much you wish you are.

    Evans can descend in the wet, the Schlecks can't & there's no one to appeal to the organisors to neatralise this!

    Great descending from Evans. Schlecks losing time to Voeckler.
