They get cought because of race radios.

Cav and boon got Jaoquin relegated for his ridiculous sprinting AGAIN! Boon got relegated too, as much as I don't really care for him (at least he just uses coke and not dope :eyeroll:  )he didnt deserve to get relegated today... he was pushing back from JJs nastiness.

In short... the sprints have been awful. Like... cat 5 field sprint awful with the way people are riding.

Contador shouldve never been riding where he was riding when he got crashed up. His fault all day long. If youre a GC all rounder with a climb specialty... why are you anywhere past mid pelo?

Thor is having the greatest tour... his heart is really in it.

Na, a pair of guys broke away with like 25 km to go and ended up getting caught by the peloton and were eaten up. The last 5 km or so today was pretty intense. Cavandish had a pretty sweet stage victory today.

You mean the breakaways, or you mean the guys who try to go out with 1-2km to go?

With a breakaway, there's always that chance you can ride away with a win, which is enough for most people to try it if they're feeling good (and usually not up in the overall classification).  With attacks really late...well, sometimes you can lead your teammates out enough, sometimes you can't.

Saw Farrar take Stage 3 on Monday, that was a pretty hectic finish for everyone.  I hear today was a lot cleaner with Cavendish throwing down.

Yea the team time trial was definately sweet. Those guys were goin balls to the wall for a heckuva distance....Pretty interesting race so far, except it seems that the guys who attack late in the race tend to get eaten up by the peloton by the time the stage is all said and done...

Was watching the first stage yesterday. Talk about an epic way to end the first stage.  I wonder how the spectator feels?

As for the TTT today, man do they haul ass.

Sup lads, just got back into cycling a couple months ago after taking a layoff(way too busy). Anyway, anyone here watching the Tour de France? Pretty crazy start to the race yesterday! Contador lost 1:20 getting caught up in a couple crashes, and lost even more today in the team TT. Should be an interesting race...
