Wow. Contador and Rasmussen banging it out on the top of Plateau de Beille. That is what I look for in post-Lance Tour de France. What a stage...what a freakin stage!
And Levi, yeah, he still has a chance - cause I'd be shocked if Ras was able to follow up todays ride with a big ride tomorrow. I haven't looked at the stage profile, but I understand that...well, it's the fucking Pyrenees. If Disco can soften up the pack enough for Levi to get out on a breakaway, he could pick up time.
Then again, if the Chicken follows it up with another huge day...start looking for needle marks.
Either way, if Levi doesn't get out soon, time to start looking Contadors way...something that there are whispers that Bruyneel is already doing. Too bad Popovych hasn't put himself in position to be a team leader...he really gritted it out today, but definitely looks more like a stage winner/super domestique than a leader, or someone who could podium.
Now...if Tom Danielson had made the TdF squad...how far back you suppose he'd be by now? Or would he have missed a cutoff. Probably.
