Aw yeah, crosswinds. And they're really stepping on the gas up front, the peloton has already fractured a couple of times.

So anybody else think Bouhani's little swerve at the line was illegal?

He had so much more speed than anyone else though, don't think it made a difference. Almost guaranteed to rain tomorrow, watch for Froome tumbling up the mountain.

Perhaps if the racer wasn't the new French sprint superstar we'd have had a relegation yesterday  It wasn't clean and he knew what he was doing, sometimes it gets called other times it doesn't.

I was pretty impressed by Contador today. Really didn't think he'd have it in him. Second most impressive was Kiryienka and his open jersey. What a madman. Anyway, is there any way to force a namechange on someone IRL? Because there's a typo in Winner Anaconda's last name and it's driving me up the wall. Thank you, Paddyb, for not triggering me.

2007 is a year that will always stick with me, it was just blow after blow, if it were to happen today I feel pro cycling would be dead in the water. It all comes to a head on stage 16. TDF 2007 - Stage 16 recap This used to be on youtube, if anything just watch the first few minutes and then cut to 45:00min, they sign off with a "good night", but wait at 45:20 there is one last announcement! Then even later Rasmussen, the yellow jersey is pulled from the race! In previous years there was just as much if not more excitement off the road.

Now that I've seen the replay a hundred times it actually looks like he handled the crash fairly well. Like, if you're gonna crash into a guardrail going 50 km/h that's probably the way to do it.

I'm glad the man that broke his leg and had treatment for it at Real Madrids training complex has made a strong enough recovery to decimate a TT. Medical miracle.

Hey I've never heard of any problems with Real Madrid and they consistently pass the controls of La Liga so I don't see what you are going on about.

The problem is "so and so trained with notorious doper _____" is like playing 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon, except there are so many cheaters that the number of degrees is less than or equal to 2. Went on a group ride? Cheating rear end in a top hat. That said, Contador is a cheating rear end in a top hat.

Contador in English probably his 3rd or 4th language, has more character and charisma than Froome. Haters just can't deal.
