Ullrich has suprised EVERYONE, except maybe himself. For the first
time in a long while I found myself screaming at the telly and
jumping up and down. :-)
and what about vinokourov? he hasnt put a foot wrong so far and yet
as dangerous as he is and has been to the GC, lance keeps 'letting'
him attack and pull back time. Today was the 3rd time he had clipped
off the front and gained time, by my reckoning.

But was Jan doing??? After 2 good days he spoils it by doing the
mistake that was often repeated by riders' in Big Mig's era -
working and chasing to defend 2nd,3rd,4th etc place - LET ARMSTRONG
WORK!!! It was he that would have lost yellow not jan, plus
jan 'holds' vino in a TT anyway to regain lost time

Best tour for years? too right it is!!!
