Depends how early the favourites start riding really hard. If they all seem to match each other, and are numerous enough, none of them will take initiatives, so it might serve Voeckler.
Plus favourites' teams are weakened by numerous falls, etc., so they might be happy with Voeckler holding the jersey for some time.
In mother Kazakhstan, Vino does not do blood doping, blood doping does Vino.
If this didn't have something to do with cycling, I would have hit you really hard. Way too many of those jokes going around.
BTW, Rojas was really sick the last few days, and even said he had the worst days he's ever had on his bike, so hopefully he can shake the sickness, and win the green.
Edit: Not that anyone else cares, but Hesjedal crashed atleast 5 times already (as in hitting the pavement, not just getting held up by one) and he has very sore ribs (I'm guessing hairline fracture) , bruised back, and neck. But he says he's still looking for a stage win later on, as he says he's proved he can win a GT stage in the Vuelta in 09.

cadel evans said he enjoyed being 3rd on a rest day because there is not as many interviews and pressure
I don't know
I guess tonight I'll find out whether Thomas Voeckler can retain his lead
he is a very good climber, and Europcar are at the top of the team standngs so they will need to watch him closely
and L.L Sanchez
Isn't he olympic champoin?
