Pulling for Andy but won’t be disappointed if it’s cadel.
Anyone think Frank has a chance.
He may have a chance for 2nd they way his brother is riding.
Andy does look sluggish. Cadel strong confident attacking.
Cadel’s form and power is astonishing. He looks like he’s flying.
Andy’s done a lot of coasting on descents.
Agree. Looks like a recon ride. Not a go for broke effort.
Congrats Cadel.
Championship effort and well deserved result.
He doesn’t have the legs today and he is struggling with the TT setup. Shame it had to end this way after how good he was in the Alps. But Evans hung with him and waited for today.

Agree. He looked sluggish from the start where Cadel had that high cadence look all the way.
Congrats also to Cadel as I think he will be the first World Mountain Bike /
TDF champ.
Phil Liggett: "He has absolutely slaughtered his opposition"
Thanks Bay for the post, thread etc. Been enjoyable.
Ready, thanks to you for the initial post, followups.
Well, I can tell you that this will be HUGE for the sport with regard to new fans, new clubs and young riders Down Under. Welcome Australia’s LeMond... And this finish was almost as thrilling as 1989. Vive le Tour, vive La France, and THANK YOU RIDERS!
For the last three weeks I have gone to bed looking forward to joining the Free Republic peloton in the morning.
--- Thanks to all of you for the fun, Bay
