I worked at home today, and after getting in a nice, long ride this morning, I caught the last hour or so of the live coverage. I agree w/you about poor Vino. If there were a jersey for courage/determination, he'd get it hands down. I hold out hope that as he gets stronger, he'll surprise everyone and get back in the running.

I heard Levi's comments about the group he was in during the final KMs and the lack of effort/cooperation.

This year's tour is interesting, for certain! BTW, I love that French president! He showed respect by staying off the podium. Recently, I read a story in the Post about how the French want him to stop jogging because it's "undignified." LOL.
