Tour De France 2013

[Shands]

EDIT: Oh and what about the little dog too! Day 2 of Tour de Obstacle not quite as effective as day 1.

Just watching the Europsort highlights and Carlton Kirby says "oh no theres a dog, good work from the riders to avoid it" Kelly says "good work from the dog" lol

Haha yeah that made me laugh at the time, nothing flusters Kelly does it.

Thomas has retired from the race according to someone on Cyclingnews. Very disappointing but interesting for the race as a whole.

False alarm! He is still riding but has a fractured pelvis - ouch

Surely he can't do 3 weeks like that!?
Maybe they will try and keep him til after the team time trial.
Shame for him - a very likable bloke.

Just been back to the Doctor for some spray. He must be in agony :(

Just in and watching the final 15km ;-)

I do predict, there wont be many days this summer, where i go back into the office if i have an appointment... See how long it is before my boss says anything!!

Ouch indeed for GT. Feel for the guy as he said he was feeling great prior to the tour. I read earlier that he isnt in too much pain, unless he bends over and moves, so like riding a bike then!! Would have been crucial tomorrow, as he is a real power house with his pursuiting back ground but i cant see him being effective as he would have been.

On the Team Sky chat, the Sky guy said Kennaugh was riding him in, which he thought was a good sign for tomorrows TTT

Another thrilling finish today. I was hoping Domoulin would stay away as he is my fantasy team :) Great idea the fantasy league.

I really hope so, but he cant be as effective if he is in constant pain, maybe do a couple of turns, give it his all, and then drop back and just complete the course again.

Another good day, so much better than the usual sprint stages and prologue that usually make up the first week.

Yeah today was very interesting again and Corsica looks beautiful. The decent from the climb by the sea was spectacular if a little hair raising mind.

It was nice to see the full Radioshack train on the front. I think its looks superb when that happens.

What's for sure is Sagan is a better rider overall than Cavendish. Glad he got pipped on the line though. Seems to me that Cav's blown the Green Jersey already.
