    I'm finding myself *wanting* my riders to look tired. If they are doing superhuman feats, I start to get suspicious. If they have a crappy day, or are tired and draggy after a huge effort, then I believe in them a little bit more.

    Yea, I feel the same way. I was mainly referring to what Mark said about quitting when he feels tired so that he could save himself for the Olympics. You can tell he just wants to keep going, but looks exhausted. It must be a difficult decision for him. No one ever wants to quit the Tour, especially with the run he's having. The guy's fast as h3ll.
