    I can't believe Chris Froome uses those rubbish standard issue tinny ear phones that come as standard with an iPod. That is lacking some serious panache. :shock:


    I dont think Froome would be listening to an iPod, but I know that a lot of the lower placed riders do ride listening to music (even though it is not permitted)

    Matti Breschel did the whole of his first Ronde with his ipod on.

    Where's the Basque Quintana? He stormed that TT. Doesn't even have TT bars. 33s down at first summit' check.

    Just got in and switched on, Schleck has pulled one out the bag, Van Garderen clearly isn't struggling anymore.

    What else have I missed? Any shocks or surprises? All TST, Sky and Belkin riders sandbagging for tomorrow (apart from the GC contenders)?

    Poor Cadel. His face is just so un-aero really.

    Bertie 2s ahead of Chris

    Let me guess, this will be an amazing True Champion Heavyweight ride and not at all dodgy at all yes?

    For those who've just turned on the TdF coverage, Froomedog is going uphill. Yes, he is climbing, that is not a flat road.

    Climbing in the TT position like that is so incredibly hard, he's making it look effortless. Very impressive.

    WTF

    How is this different from you blithering on about how good Contador looks on a bike?

    Talansky bests Teejay to move into provisional 2nd.
