I just dropped in to say....

Schleck attacks. Catches Voigt who waits at the beginning of the descent, Voigt bombs down the descent with Schleckford on his wheel.

That's very clearly the plan. Wonder if it works.

Anyone else think it looks stupid when the KOM jersey gets crapper out the back at the start of serious climbs? It should be a mixture of points and GC standings

Much as the "sprinter's" jersey isn't actually for the best sprinter, the "climber's" jersey isn't actually for the best climber. Winning the polka-dots requires aggression more than anything else.

From the overhead, all the Shack are once again sitting too far back.
Saxo start to ramp it up.

I still wish that there a some sort of rule that the teams can't have outfits that are as similar as those of BMC and Shack. constantly looks like one team is swamping my picture with twice as many riders as the rest is allowed to bring.

Overhead shots can be a nightmare to decipher too.

Was that Mick Rogers off the back already? He did a really good ride two days ago, I'm surprised he's popped so fast.
