I've avoided reading this for fear of seeing a stage result before i got to view it, especially with Cavendish in the first week. It's been a good tour, a bit flat in week 2 results-wise but as always Le Tour is captivating viewing. I haven't missed a day and unsuprisingly the cream has risen to the top with the col de la colombiere shuffling the pack as expected today (i watched the whole race today

).
Obviously i'm rootin' for Wiggins, hopefully his time trial can put him back in a position to reach the podium in Paris but anything in the top 6 is a massive achievement.
You had to feel sorry for the Schleck brothers today, with Contador bouncing on his pedals all the way, he's a worthy champion.
It was also said to hear that Van Hummel retired today, he's been last for nearly the whole tour, he's done well in the green jersey comp. but as the commentators said he just can't get up the hills, being Dutch probably doesn't help his cause

So close to Paris what a shame for him, maybe he looked ahead and thought he'd never get over Mont Ventoux on the eve of Paris!
Vive Le Tour
