I can't believe Cancellera is going so hard since he is wanting to make a good showing in the Olympics.

I think Gerolsteiner are using Schumacher to setup Kohl. I think that Kohl will win today and take the lot.
CSC have isolated Evans, will they start attacking now? |

Well, B1, Popovych is not looking great.

  Others in yesterday's break such as Nibali are also suffering today. The one who is still chugging big time is potato head. |

They are half-way up Croix de Fer, and looks like CSC is "staying the course" GWB style. They better attack before the crest if they want to do anything significant.
Whoa! What a scenery - razor sharp pinnacles sticking out of the slope.  |

Latest edition of the Popovych Report: He has almost rejoined on the flatter section. He will get shelled as soon as the gradient kicks up again.
