TdG TTT
Well, this one's turning out to be a bit of a thriller unlike most TTT's we've seen. Even on such a short course the teams are loosing riders to the time cut left right and centre, probably thanks to the really steep hill on each of the four laps. And Slipstream have beaten CSC!!!
Also, the time gaps aren't too devastating for any of the teams so far, so it hasn't destroyed the GC competition like TT's in these short tours often does. |

Interesting that Botero was dropped. Hamilton was not. I would have expected the opposite. The last time I saw pics of Hamilton, it was obvious he was carrying extra weight. Botero does has a history of erratic performances... Rock did not do that great. Nice to see Slipstream beat Astana, the doper express.

Re: TdG TTT
Has Tommy D. gotten over his back problem? He did not get dropped on a tough TTT course.

Re: TdG TTT
Don't think he's quite over it, he was wearing a back brace today apparently.
