following my previous posts discussing how to dope and never return a positive test. Who had a transfusion and is going to nuke the rest of the peloton up the madeleine?

Contador. It was a big surprise to see him surrender time to Long Face and he'll be keen to not have it happen again. He'll take risks.

Hell, Puyol rode his luck.

So Levi is gonna suck wheels even better tomorrow? Makes sense.

I think it's his massive head. It's attracted to rubber. His head is a rubber magnet.

Oh dear, I think I mighta seen Levi in one of 'those' films.

Ryder Hesjedal, I love the guy, but over the past couple years with the rise of CVV, and Wigans (who is not as spectacular as he was last year). I have no doubt he'll have a big day Garmin might be some of the cleanest of the bunch but i dont think there is any exception from the norm for their GC guys.

After tomorrows stage we should start a new "who do you think is clean" tread, it should be pretty apparent after tomorrow.

Sammy Sanchez. He showed he's in good form yesterday and rode pretty anonymously throughout the stage. Stage 9 with the big downhill finish after the summit suits his downhill flyer style.

Wow I just wasted about 30 minutes looking at past TDF races to see how his teams/riders did pre and post rest days in comparison to other teams/riders. Nothing to see...

Sorry, the above is incomplete without also comparing the Time Trials.

1. EVANS Cadel 1h07'48"
5. POPOVYCH Yaroslav 01'02"
6. CONTADOR VELASCO Alberto 01'04"
8. LEIPHEIMER Levi 01'25"

1. LEIPHEIMER Levi 1h02'44"
2. EVANS Cadel 51"
4. POPOVYCH Yaroslav 02'01"
5. CONTADOR VELASCO Alberto 02'18"

If Levi could recreate that form he showed in the 3rd week of 2007 he'd be a multiple GT winner by now.

My thoughts too.

Has Lance decided on a 'clean' tour since the crashes?

More time lost today.

They fill bottle with all the bags. He seems to hang on better than usual.
