Indeed the "grand tours" according to the UCI points schemes are the TdF, Giro and Vuelta. I think grand refers to the duration, which is longer than the others. So, that is amazing he is likely to WIN his first ever grand tour. Yes, Levi was amazing today. His position looked so perfect. I was so grateful GLC posted that link to versus on line so I could watch it from my cabin in the woods with internet but no TV. Even if Cadel wants to get some time bonuses tomorrow, how can he? If he tries a breakaway the disco boys will reel him in, and then of course the sprinters will get the stage win. But, do you guys realize if Levi wasn't fined 10 sec early on (?stage 12 I think) for drafting on the support vehicle after a bike change he would be in second place.
