Good morning!

Or good night, I guess :-)

Great stage yesterday.

I wonder how todays stage will play out with the shake up at the top of the GC.

How eager will Phonak be to defend the yellow...

Cheers.

Good morning/afternoon/evening, Eurotwit! Yes, I was up far too late putting these threads together last night. I've got to learn to be a bit faster... ;-)

Nice results today, although I'm wondering why Team Discovery took so long to get going...
