    Why did Andy Schleck abandon

    Since they changed their format, I can't get Cycling News (other than the forum) on my cell phone. I won't have access to my desktop computer until Tuesday. I could easily access the news before the change, but now it freezes my whole cellphone if I try to access it.

    Official Thread: Stage 17 Bourg-Saint-Maurice to Le Grand-Bornand

    I don't know much about riding, but I'm thinking that pushing hard on a descent doesn't take much out of you, unless you crash. :confused:

    Looks to me like Bruyneel's trying to make it AC, AK, and LA on the podium.

    Official Thread: Stage 16 TdF Martigny - Bourg-Saint-Maurice

    Armstrong's surge back to the peloton reminded me of the old bubonic plague victim in "The Holy Grail" saying (in response to the call, "Bring out your dead!"), "I'm not quite dead yet ... I think I'll go for a walk."

    Official Thread: Stage 16 TdF Martigny - Bourg-Saint-Maurice

    I just saw Martinez gesture to Pellizotti, "Let's stop off in the next village for a pizza," and I think I could lipread Pellizotti saying, "No, I just had one for breakfast."

    Who will fill the final 2 podium places?

    If Contador and Armstrong lead Kloden up to a stage win, and then Contador and Kloden lead Armstrong up to a stage win, and then Contador does his thing, I could see Contador, Kloden, and Armstrong coming in 1, 2, 3.
