Badly corrupt sport. Can't pay it any attention. Don't think anybody will really unless they are cyclists or really passionate fans.

It's a joke.

I am just curious, do the cyclists take a break once in a while or do they have to keep riding non-stop?

It's more non-stop because during the days they have a break, they take their bicycle and they train. Laughing

It's about 2 years I don't follow cyclism, who are the favourites this year other than Contador?

Contador will not do it because his team Astana is not qualified. I think Cadel Evans is the biggest favourite as he was second last year.

Ah no Contador Shocked

Tour de France and cyclism are falling down these days.. only about 2 years ago there were plenty of good riders Ullrich, Landis, Armstrong, Basso now the best is Contador then we have Evans, Menchov Leipheimer Confused

Anyway I hope to get interested in it again next year with Basso back

This year it didn't start with a stage against the clock. It's finished for Hervé Duclos-Lasalle, he had a broken wrist. Valverde have won on a sprint.

It was the first againt the clock, Romain Feillu have lost his yellow jersey and it's Stefan Schumacher who wear it now. It's a good day for Cadel Evans.

Is better? If every year there is more doping, the last 2 years the leader lost due to doping...

Tour is a competition of cheaters.

Today it's the first rest day since the beginning.

Yesterday the stage was great. Piepoli won the stage and Cadel Evans took the yellow jersey.
