    You liar. The race isn't over yet.

    And, PLEASE don't put results in the header. Some of us are waiting to watch
    it during the evenings after work.

    If you do wish to discuss results, please put the work "SPOILER" somewhere
    so we can know to avoid the posts.

    Thanks,
    Paul

    Actually, he's TRYING to spoil it for us, so I doubt your request will be
    honored.

    You may not have noticed, but he's changed his name each time he's posted...

    knew he'd then do it!

    Sorry, didn't think about that. I'll be good.
    It was a fact though. The race was still going on when he posted.
    No OLN, so I follow on their web site each morning.

    understand.

    Didn't mean you in particular, Shawn. And, like Jon said, he's changing his
    user name daily to get past filters anyway.

    How about the live audio? It's about 10 seconds behind OLN, but otherwise
    exact same commentary.

    I've been using the Velonews site. They have a little window that
    updates itself every 3 minutes or so, with a sentence or two of
    play-by-play whenever something happens. You can at least know
    the major happenings of the stage within about 10 minutes of real
    time. I ache for live footage though, especially when they type
    in "CRASH!" and say nothing about the details for another 3 minutes...

    Like listening to [censored]. Just not the same, can't see the shaved parts. ;-)

    FWIW, you might want to give cyclingnews.com's live report a try. I tried
    them both during the spring classics and liked it better than vn. Biggest
    moment of 2004, so far...

    17:33 CEST 253km/8km to go
    The gap is 26 seconds. All of these riders in front can sprint, but who has
    the strength at the end of 260 km? But it's not over yet. Amazing stuff from
    Museeuw.

    Boonen is in the chase group, as are Diercksens, Hincapie, Hoste, Van Bon,
    Van Petegem, Hoj, Flecha....

    17:35 CEST 254km/7km to go
    The leaders have 30 seconds with 8 km left, and are looking good. They are
    now on zone 2: Hem, as Backstedt takes over with Museeuw on his wheel.

    17:36 CEST 255km/6km to go
    The chase group is not coming back. Van Petegem has missed it, due to bad
    luck more than anything. We have five candidates for the win with 6.5 km to
    go.

    Museeuw punctures! Oh dear.

    You can listen to Phil and Paul's live commentary from OLN's site if
    you have a fast connection.

    Though I was pulling for George and happy for Magnus, Museeuw's
    puncture was really an awful shame.
