Nothing matters until they get to the first set of mountain stages. Everyone knows that...
The time trails matter to be fair( Andy Schleck already half a minute behind Armstrong after today for example) and a breakaway allowed away on a flat course can do damage. But yeah it all about the mountains.
Soccer and cycling. Why not just complete the gay trifecta and discuss who wins the next tennis tournament?

I'm afriad you know nothing - professional cycling is one of the most brutal and unrelenting sports in the history of the world. The Tour De France is three weeks of suffering and pain of the highest order.
four cat four climbs today.,... nothing too difficult... breakway and the peloton already through the first two...
Versus network announcers think its going to be another sprinter type race today. Some good climbs tomorrow!
Cavendish wins another stage... his HTC-Columbia teammates really set him up well around that last corner...
Tomorrow, first taste of the mountains heading into the Alps. Three cat 2 climbs in the last half of tomorrow's stage before the first true mountain stage on Sunday....
Dang, I left right after the finish to go for a ride myself and missed this. Cyclists make terrible fighters. :2razz: videozone
HTC really has that down. Renshaw sets him up perfectly. Neat to watch and analyze on the replays. I think tomorrow the yellow will be up for grabs. Cadel Evans has been doing extremely well. Never liked that guy before, but I think he's learning to relax a little and be a better racer. I'd like to think Hincapie has that influence on a team (he's my fav) , but regardless Evans is in a better place in being on Team BMC than his previous team.
I have Greg Lemond. :mrgreen:
