It’s obvious to say that le Alpe d’huez was no dope show today with everyone looking at each other while the Schleck Bros. contained every single attack allowing Mother fuck’n Sastre to grow his attack at the bottom to over 2 minutes by the top. Genius from Riis, no doubt Mr. 60% knows the doping [...]

Read The Full Post..>>Cavendish calls it good at 4 and doesn’t even show to the start of stage 15.
Pate gets in the mix and comes oh so close to a stage win.
Pereiro, coming in hot…
And, poor old Evans… seems he’s getting a bit lonely in the pain cave. Defensive riding blows.
Cadel in pain cave, Vandevelde works tempo.

looks like bikes vs. cars has turned into an all out civil war in portland.
Is this for real? ‘Cyclist’ on hood of road-rager happens to be caught on camera? F’n weird up that Portland hood. Makes me think that place ain’t all it’s cracked up to be for cyclists.
The Hautacam went as expected today. A couple of waif Italians off the front, crying tears of success over the line. Cadel, tried his mountainbiker best to get in there and he held a respectable placing to the summit. By default, we now get to see him wear the yellow. Surpisingly, Vandevelde rocked it and [...]
