Hi Mom MD.

So far this tour has been one of the least exciting in the past few years.

Not for lack of a great course that could have presented opportunities for someone to step forward.

A friend of mine summarized it as "no Patron". Methinks the peleton is unwilling to give Contador that role, and many think he is incapable of donning that mantle.

Well, I’d say Thor did very well today - as well as Garmin.

And looky there Cav had a very respectable finish as well.

I found today’s stage to be far from unexciting. It would be cool to have a general analysis from Bay or Ready or someone. One of the questions on my mind is, I understand there is a reasonable gap, but could Cadel Evans win the tour? Is BMC strong enough to support him for an overall win?
