I was really disappointed yesterday when Floyd Landis cracked on the climb to La Toussuire. He seemed to say he was just having an off day but other reports have said he bonked hard. There’s a good article on Biking Bis about what might have happened.
I was really hoping he would win the overall. He was a mountain biker before making the switch to the road and I admire his hard work ethic. I can also relate to the way he grew up.
Since I don’t have cable, I read the live report on cyclingnews.com. Since I know a lot of people watch the stage in the evening, I won’t spoil it but it was an incredible stage. With only 30 seconds between the top 3 riders on GC, Saturday’s time trial will determine the overall winner.
