I'm watching all of it but I wokeup about halfway through it. :p I was amazed at Lance passing Ullrich. I'm hoping that Vinokourov does pretty well this year. :)

Armstrong comes in 2nd by I think 2 seconds but passes Jan Ullrich. Post your comments!

I think I head all of the other TdF races say a collective "Oh sh!t..." when Lance hit the finish line.... again.

I bet that stage was fun to watch!

But not as fun as being out on the trails on the nicest day of the summer so far :p
Even better to have done both...ok, so I didn't "watch" the TDF (no cable here :( )but I was online checking it out as soon as I got home ;)

Hahaha, Lance didn't even look at poor Jan. Jan just glimpsed and then kept his head down. If the weather was the same (read: tailwind) for Lance as it was for Vinokourov, Lance would've had 30sec-1min on everyone.

i didnt get to see it BUT i did get to feel the heat of the day. it's been over a 100 that last 2 days.

to do well this year ullrich WILL have to attack like a mad man and not worry about protecting his position. all or nothing jan.

I didn't watch, but I did have more fun on a 35 mile ride, even if it is 100.

Relatively cool day and the trails were in perfect condition.

Pretty cool race today, cuz there was no leaders so it was a 182 man sprint at the end, a few people tried to break out early but didnt stand a chance!

jan must have freakin' nightmares about lance...

how many times has he lost to lance? what, the only time he won the tour was when lance was out with his cancer
i think he's jinxed, especially this year. first he crashes into his team car during a training run (bad omen), and then lance passes him in the TT

i can just imagine his dreams, haunted by a skinny guy wearing a yellow bracelet, heh

Not to mention a guy with 1 testicle as well HAHAHA.

Anyway did anyone else catch the stage two interview with zabriskie? The interviewer was like "So Dave did you sleep, eat or do any other weird things with the yellow jersey you first night?" Dave goes "No no I always sleep in the buff."

HAHA I laughed, Dave is cool.
