    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



    May the Lord bless this post.

      All started apart from Vaitkus and Gonzalez (who crashed out on Stage 1).

        2 riders (Nicolas Vogondy and Matthieu Ladagnous) out front with a lead of 8'15". Still 122.9km to go - will it finish in time for me to get to the bank? It's touch and go I think.

                    Nicolas Vogondy, Frederik Willems, Matthieu Ladagnous and Stéphane Auge in front.

                    Auge over the climb first and takes the polka-dot from Millar.

                        Le Tour will start to be interesting once they reach the climbs.

                          OK, that's Robert Millar but his namesake did win it today.
                          That Robert Millar is now a woman called Phillipa Forrest i think and lives in Dorset with her girlfriend!!!

                            From The Guardian recently:

                            Then, in 2000, a bizarre rumour emerged. Millar was having a sex change, apparently. A tabloid newspaper published the story but there was no response from Millar. Two years later he - yes, he - appeared in Manchester to assist the Scotland team at the Commonwealth Games but by now public appearances were rare; the writing had also ceased.

                            And that was pretty much it. These days, Millar is in very occasional email contact with one or two former acquaintances but his whereabouts are a mystery. He was spotted by a former cycling team mechanic in Spain in 2003, riding his bike, hair dyed red. Otherwise, there has been nothing. I tried to make contact by email when writing my biography of Millar and heard nothing for six months before a flood of emails over 10 days, the correspondence brought to a close with a final and non-negotiable: "No more questions".

                              It already is interesting.

                              Now f**k off. "Someone" probably needs your protection again.

                                How is this not interesting? A breakaway going under the flamme rouge before being caught - it was touch and go from about 35km out. As for the yellow jersey breaking out of the pack with 600m to go and winning a sprint, do you have any idea how often that happens?

                                It was an awesome display of power by Cancellara.
