Poor Thor. That was a lot of blood on his pretty jersey.
Snap that Tour de Schmalz guy is hysterical - thanks for shaing that.
Wow. George. Super cool. I really wish we were there this year. It is such an amazing party over there when this is going on. And with the result less pre-determined than usual it would be more fun. Although the first year we went was 2003, and that year was pretty crazy.Sarah

Boy I am so hoping that George has what it takes to get the job done. I think it is only fitting that he win the GC, and get to enjoy the ride into Paris. I really can't think of any guy more deserving (sp). I mean he pretty much gave up seven years of his career to be loyal to the cause of a friend. Now its his turn. I think highly of a man who didn't bail out to try to get the glory on his own before his time.
That was so cool to see George put on that yellow jersey. It was almost a tear jerker.

George looked AWESOME in yellow. I wonder how long he'll hang onto his lead, considering it's only 4 seconds.
Thor's injury looked quite bad. Hopefully he's all patched up and will be back tomorrow.
Great stage."Only the meek get pinched, the bold survive"

Lovin' Big George right about now!
