Tour de France 2012

Loved this comment on the Guardian article:

Sky have killed the excitement of this Tour with their smothering of the pelaton. Last few days have been boringly predictable; Wiggins with his stony faced lieutenants protecting him and killing any possible breakout by the pack. Where are the challengers? Bring back Lance... and Ulrich, and Pantani etc... etc...Sky have basically bought the Tour, it is not dissimilar to Manchester city buying the Premiership.. Boring!
