    Schlecklet lost 2 mins! I'm genuinely thrilled for Evans, been nervous all day!

    Hungover I may be but a beer is called for! and he's on Campag too!

    Congrats to Cadel - great TT power - and a good TDF victory - he's got all the facets. Unlucky Andy - he needs alot of TT work (and a new body-composition for TT'ing :) )

    Voeckler's hammering it.
    Remember that you are an Englishman and thus have won first prize in the lottery of life.

    After chasing down Andy in the mountains on two consecutive days, to come and do this is amazing.

    Anybody downplaying Cadel's worthiness after this race needs a slap.

    Will Andy be back in time to see Cadel on the podium?

    I had one of them red bikes but I don't any more. Sad face.

    Shame, IMO Andy is much more deserving of the Yellow than Cadel is.

    The Schlecks are only 1 second apart in their times at the 2nd checkpoint.

    i don't think so! Evans has been the nearly man for so long and he's towed the bunch for the last few days

    Andy's going to try and gain some time on the ascent of the speed bumps.

    For actually attacking. All I've seen from Cadel is him being on the defensive, don't get me wrong it's amazing what he's done without any help, but I'd rather see a winner who has been attacking to get there.

    is it not the campag electronic shifting they've been trialling? if not, way to piss off your sponsors

    That is awesome riding by cadel. A really worthy champion. Chapeau.
    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    How can the Shlecks be so bad at TT? :o
    Come on Cadel you deserve this! After the work he's put in climbing the Alps it's impressive to see him riding like this.
    55:40!!! 2nd place :D
