WTF Rogers
This morning he was bragging about how yesterday he put out the best climbing numbers of his life. Now he's not even in the third group?
Is he saving for the TT or something?

Hmmm. Interesting. With bonifications we'd have a new maillot jaune today.

Somebody told me that this would be a boring Tour? Ruben probably still thinks it is
Fantastic stage apart from Samu. Really sad to see. |

Realtively short and steep climbs perfect for Porte and Rodgers? No way...

Well Madiot deserved to have a rider win after exhausting himself from yelling. Roy couldn't do it for him last year, but Pinot could

Radioshack refused the new rule with helemts along other team....
If they are leading Team, they should not wear them.
And Kirchen, only first 3 riders count. It doesn't matter if you have 20 or 5. It's just the first 3

Radioshack were 1m 37s behind before today's result, so it will definantly be close |

Perhaps Sky don't have Yellow versions of their TT helmets, so the Aussies took it easy
