STAGE 13
PRE-RACE
Alberto: I won yesetday, but didn't get the yellow jersey. I will try to steal it back today!
Chris: Contador may have the stage win, but I will get the yellow jersey!
Local cyclist: Another mountain stage, why ASO? Do they want me to finish outside the time limit?
212km to go
The race between Alberto Contador and Chris Froome continues, but who cares? The only thing we care about is the local cyclist! Will he make it in time today?
85km to go
Contador shows that he is interested in the minor classifications, taking both mountain sprints and the intermediate sprints! But who cares, because there is some terrible news! We have lost contact the local cyclist! We don't know where he is and in what condition. We hope to give you some more information later on!
10km to go
Froome won the final mountain sprint, but who cares? We still diddn't found the local cyclist. Some people said that he had fallen and has been taken to the hospital, but nothing is confirmed yet!
3000m to go
Froome leading out Contador again, but who cares? We have news about the local cyclist! Some people reported him about 20 minutes behind the two with some bruises, but we couldnt get a shot of him. We must hope for the best!
0m to go
Suprising winner today, because Chris Froome managed to hold Alberto Contador off during the sprint! But who cares, because the only thing we could possibly think of now is the condition of the local cyclist. Some people said that they saw him stepping into a organizers' car. We hope this is not true, and that he will finish!
A lot of minutes later
The local cyclist only has 1 minute to arrive now, but what's that. Is it? Is it? Yes, it is him. The local cyclist arrives at the finish line today, just inside the time-limit! Congratulations! He doesn't seem hurt, maybe he just ttok it easy?

Next stage should be like this.
Attacks right from the line! Local Cyclist, Contador, and Froome are among the escapees!

@ krisa: Yes, but for how long?
@ baseballlover312, jseadog1, NTTHRASH & mvhoogdalem: Glad you talk about the local cyclist, but he will get less attention in the next stages
@ sutty68: Chris thanks you for your support!
@ mvhoogdalem: I hope so!
I don't know if I can do a stage today

STAGE 14
PRE-RACE
Alberto: I will win today!
Chris: I will win today!
Local cyclist: I won't win today!
214km to go
We are out the Alpes and heading towards the Pyrenees. Today's recipe: a flat stage. The organizers are waving with the flag which means we can go! We will keep it short today, because its a boring stage and I need to do something else!
0m to go
Today's stage in a nutshell: No attacks, a puncture for the local cyclist, and Alberto Contador winning the intermediate sprint, the mountain sprint and the 'bunch sprint'.

| Rank | Name | Time | | 1 | Alberto Contador | 6h07'58 | | 2 | Chris Froome | s.t. |
GC:
| Rank | Name | Time | | 1 | Chris Froome | 70h50'23 | | 2 | Alberto Contador | + 26 |

Alberto will take the points jersey I think. And the most victories. And maybe the KoM. Yet, Froome will win the GC by a lack of gaps

@ krisa: Maybe, but I have seen bigger gaps thsi tour that also should have been a difference
@ Jesleyh & sutty68: Froome gives Contador all points at the sprints, so he is the main favourite for those classifications. But Froome knows when he must do something
@ jseadog1: He can, but he has to get rid of Froome
Next stage within a minute!

STAGE 15
PRE-RACE
Alberto: I will win today, because I will attack!
Chris: I will win today, because i'm going to wheelsuck!
Local cyclist: I won't win today, because they are too good!
191km to go
A transition stage today, hilly, but not yet mountanious. A long decent after the two 'big' hills might shake things up a little, because it's raining today! Maybe they attack on the last hill, but who knows?
46km to go
The first and second mountain sprint and the intermediate sprint are won by..... Alberto Contador. He leads both classification with quite a big gap. However, both he and Chris Froome did not attack. But maybe on the last climb of today, which is about to start now!
37km to go
No, they decided not to attack. The Spaniard may have the mountain points, which makes him even more secure of the polka dot jersey! The only thing left is a downhill to Foix, where we can see a sprint (probably).
1000m to go
Under the banner and Contador will lead-out yellow jersey Froome! We now probably now who will win today!
0m to go
Yes, it's Chris Froome who wins today! In the background we can see the local cyclist, who rode very well today! But the real fight between Contador and Froome has not been decided yet, because the Pyrenees are very close!
Stage:
| Rank | Name | Time | | 1 | Chris Froome | 5h52'46 | | 2 | Alberto Contador | s.t. |
