Lance is back in the lead

[roguerower]

Just got second on the mountain stage and he's back in the lead w/ the yellow jacket. Beat the previous yellow jacket holder by 15-20 minutes. Dude got pwned. GO LANCE!

You know, europeans always make fun of american for being obese...

Well, let me just say how embarassing is it that an american is kicking france's ass in their own game?

How did Rasmussen do? Was he spent from Stage 9 or did he still have some legs?

edit: he moved up to #3, so he obviously got some rest on the off day!

Everyone was talking yesterday like he'd lost the race...wtf is going on.

It's a long race and they haven't even gotten to the hard part. The yellow jersey changing hands doesn't mean a lot yet...

 

[CPA]

The more important question is how much time did he pick up on his main rivals?

Nobody can handle the mountains like Lance. I'd be surprised if he surrendered it again

The good thing for Lance is that the hard part has always been his strongpoint. Every year he does alright on the easy stages and then pulls ahead in the mountain stages.

one ball makes him more areodynamic.

That + hax = lance win

 

[Spike]

Man, I wish I could bike half that well...

 

[JEDI]

He was right with Lance the whole way up the mountain. Little 130lb guy can move. Only got left behind at the final sprint.

Basso got dropped, Ullrich got whipped, Voight got utterly destroyed
