    He would say that, wouldn't he?

    I think he's probably in pretty good form really but it still surprises me he lost time to his brother. On reflection though perhaps I'm more surprised Frank stayed with Contador and Evans...

    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.

        ahhhh Contador in a crash now, looks like he could be losing a bit of time here unless he cracks on and quickly.

          I'm amazed at the amount of crashes we've had so far. Utter chaos!
          On the Ning Nang Nong
          Where the Cows go Bong!
          And the Monkeys all say Boo!
          There's a Nong Nang Ning
          Where the trees go Ping!
          And the tea pots Jibber Jabber Joo.
          On the Nong Ning Nang
          All the mice go Clang!
          And you just can't catch 'em when they do!
          So it's Ning Nang Nong!
          Cows go Bong!
          Nong Nang Ning!
          Trees go Ping!
          Nong Ning Nang!
          The mice go clang!
          What a noisy place to belong,
          Is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong!!

                    Boasson Hagen hadn`t read the stage profile properly, so he started his sprint too early. That probably screwed up the plan for the other teams. But at least it was a proper man vs man sprint, where the fastest man won.

                      When Cavendish wins, the fastest man always wins.

                        I said it that way on porpose, he is the fastest rider. He is the main reason Hushovd has changed from a specialized sprinter, he knows he can`t beat Cavendish in a straight sprint.

                          Also I suspect that in a flat sprint Hushovd knows he's slower than Farrar too. And you almost inevitably lose a bit of speed when you get older and a move towards focusing on the Classics makes sense, new challenges, etc. It's much like Boonen has done.

                            Another great finish today. Contador's not having an easy ride, is he?

                            Good to see poor old Rupe Murdoch has something to celebrate today.

                              Who needs mountains and straigth sprint stages, all stages should have a small climb at the end.

                                Contador and Saxo are not having an easy ride this year. Have been in numerous crashes, one of the most experienced riders get pulled down by a motorcycle and Contador's helpers do not look particular strong this year.
