Schleck bros are doing better than expected.
Kloden doing better on 12km to end.

Accusatory - implying doping you mean?
That seems to be all LeMond brings to the table anymore...
To: commish
Ouch Lance in at 50:00 even. Blogs say he was peddling very ragged at the end. LOst 36 seconds to Kloden, and 47 seconds to Wiggins.

Wiggins moves 2 seconds ahead of Kloden in the GC.
Contador has the Tour in his hip pocket now, but it is going to be one hell of a battle between the Shlecks, LA, Kloden and Wiggins for the other 2 podium spots.
