    Cadel consistenly makes good space for himself. I don't think he's one to be messed with.

    Have the big Teams plugged the road. Too far out for sprinters and gc teams can't be @rsed. No escapes by the small Teams.

    For full disclosure, I was offered a week on the tour with the company who do all the signage and barriers and "own" the last km... They didn't win the contract they were bidding on though. Bugger.
