I'm stuck at home battling what might turn out to be a migraine. I can't ride so I thought I would do the next big thing and share a couple of my videos from this year's TdF with you lot. They're not future award winners, but I like them.

From Stage 17 Gap to Pinerolo. First is the lead bunch with Sylvain Chavanel and the second is the peloton about 5mins behind.

Excellent - I spotted Voeckler & Hushovd straight away!

Thanks.

My girlfriend said afterwards: "Thor came right past me. Ace. I think I saw him make his way across the bunch in order to do so!"

wow. amazing. The crowds don't seem as , well, crowded as they do on the tele. nice post.

I was thinking this as I was stood there waiting. It was a good crowd, but not crazy like on Galibier, Telegraphe or Alpe d'Huez. We wanted to go to Stage 18, but the road closure would have held us up there in the Alps when really we needed to be heading home... worked out better I think in terms of crowds.
