Tour de France 2009

check this commentry from eurosport out:!

14:42 - 55km - The brown-shorted Ag2R team-mates of yellow jersey Rinaldo Nocentini are setting the pace on the front of the peloton. Their shorts really are that colour - this is not a round-about way of saying they're scared or anything. The gap is 2'11" at the moment. Hincapie and Rosseler are setting the pace in the leading group, with Sanchez doing his bit too.

Casar and Hincapie are cooked..

Ag2R team kit is awful IMHO, which probably means a classic for the future..

i think the cervelo kits are great.

wiggens is still up there! great stuff.

Col D'Anges looks stunning, the road surface not great though, descent will be interesting..

and he won most aggressive rider for that stage.. courageous effort from wiggo, did he finish the tour in 2007? i can't remember, i was in Paris for the last day too..

Didn't Confidis get kicked out, Brad left with the hump cos he didn't get the chance to finish.

Another awesome stage. Great finish too.

Nope - You can thank Christian Moreni for that.

what a great finish! so efimkin finshed where he spent most of the race!

Nope - You can thank Christian Moreni for that.

that's right, a few riders got busted.. also Rusmussen (rabobank)..and Vinokourov (astana).. and soured what should have been a great tour.. praying it doesn't happen this year.

You're praying to a false god.

pure virtuosity

That was pretty incredible. Why was Cancellara so far off the pace in the first place?

flat tyre...

flat tyre...

first time he got a flat he took it easy, had a piss and got some food. he was very relaxed. don't think he realised how far back he was. then he got back on the group and got a second flat.

check this video out.i assume it's from the descent today. have a look what they give him when he gets to the top...

The commentators were saying that he didn't get a flat the second time. He was swapping wheels so that they matched and looked good. I shit you not.

He didn't get a second flat, rather he'd yellow rimmed wheels on when he flatted and he didn't like the fact they mismatched after the puncture, so stopped again to get a matching front.

Is he more of a tart than DJ?

Yellow S-Works - Want!

or he just wanted the limelight again as he realised that the motorbike followed him the whole way down. i know you you said 'i shit you not' but i still think you're shitting me.

only 2hours to go. who's got a prediction? does anyone think casar has any legs left?
