Tell me about it. These are the guys I'm lining up against week in, week out. I wish I could say I care, but in truth what can you do? I push myself, and I've learned a great outing doesn't necessarily mean winning.

You can call the USADA tip line, which is anonymous. How do you think testers have known to single out some of the guys that have recently gotten busted?

I can't watch Tommy V climb out of the saddle w/out laughing.

I on the other hand can't not watch him bolt from the group over and over again. Go, go, go!

Those legs are absolutely ripped.

[ultyguy]

Yeah, it's not to say that he doesn't have my respect. I was lucky enough to be standing at the Ghisallo at last year's Lombardia to see his failed long range attack there (thwarted by a crash inside a tunnel eventually). The guy has guts/balls etc.

It was Gautier who blew that for Europcar yesterday.

[micky]

One Rai's camera guy just after a race in Italy (can't recall which one..) asked a Rai's journalist "who's that Europcar guy?" and the journalist answered Voeckler and the camera guy "...ah...alright...cause everytime he noticed I was filming him he would start acting funny with his gesture/face".

[airwise]

Out of interest, how many of the GC contenders left spend their Winters and training camps at altitude?

Voeckler has the wierdest shaped lower legs I've ever come across.

It was Gautier who blew that for Europcar yesterday.

I thought they tried quite hard and with some effect to take advantage of their numbers on the final climb. Only watched the finish in passing, but wasn't it Voeckler who didn't mark Rogers closing down and passing Gautier for the win?

I would've read it that Gautier should've gotten on his wheel straight away and then not worked, but I guess I can see it the other way round too.

petepeterson- wow, just wow, made my morning

[gravity]

Anybody knows if there is any TdF highlights available on the internetz? ASO seems to have been taken down every single ones.. What an @$$H0L3%!

Think he may have thought he was on a night out back home in Perth, rather than riding the Tour de France.

MAJKA

[tymon_tm]

maybe i'm biased, but what the heck - Rafał Majka is in my humble opinion the biggest revelation not only of this Tour, but the entire 2014 season

[plpete]

Superb ride by Rafal Majka indeed! 1st Polish rider to ever win 2 stages in the tour. This stage was also the stage where another Pole, Zenon Jaskula, won a stage in '93 Tour. Glad to see some Poles emerging to the top
