I love the way Contador is talking up the time trial by pointing out that Schleck won the Luxembourg national time trial, so must therefore be rated in that discipline. What he means is "he beat his brother in a race down the shops".

Tomorrow's stage will be must see. TdF at it's best.

Chuckled at that myself. Think I read somewhere that there were 6 entrants in total.

Brilliant stuff from Cavendish
With a couple of good time trialers tomorrow and Paris Sunday could GB catch the french stage total this year?

Better from Schleck than I was expecting and I would say pretty much everybody else. Well done to that man, just a shame that Contador's chain didn't come off today, then we could have had some justice

Quote:Looking forward to Le Tour although like many, it's hard to see past Contador. Hopefully a good show by the Brits; Wiggins for possible podium, Cav for green jersey, Millar for a breakaway stage win or two.
The Radioshack team could be interesting to watch if Armstrong is not on his mettle, a few quality G.C. riders ready to seize upon any weakness.
My prediction for Le Tour.
I'll get mi coat
I wouldn't bother reading this bit, there is nothing interesting, witty or insightful down here, just this collection of boring words explaining that you really are wasting your time browsing this signature in the vain and futile hope that there will be a nugget, nay, a veritable goldmine of witticisms or divine philosophy. In reality, all you're going to get is disappointment, a sense of hopelessness and a random word.
