Team CSC is in big trouble now over whom they are gonna back Cancellara is not good in mountains, team leader sastra is but who will back sastra when Cancellara is doing like this.

2 days more to go before we reach the alps. If you don't watch cycling, just start watching. You will be amazed by the scenery. And by the race too
i thought there was power left in breakaway group to pull it off, but they couldnt had they continued the tempo rather than looking over the shoulders they might have pulled it off.

McEwen tried in vain but the move by cancellera was remarkably bold and powerfull. He left every sprinter behind like a flash.

The teams of sprinters had believed that they had breakaway covered but the two ridrs created havoc. At one time it looked like Cancellera will lose his yellow jersey then the Team CSC came in to the picture.

Today it will be really exciting as no more loger breakaways will be allowed.

ps edit : and yeah you want your eyes to cool off after a long bombarding of junk news, boring soaps, ridiculous competitions, and indian cricket debacles then this is the event to lookout for. Excellent coverage, superb scenery and exciting competition.
