Team GB was immense, pulled all day, (with spells of help from Germany and Australia) and were still able to be there at the end.

I was otherwise engaged last weekend, but would like to take this opportunity to say Hurrah for Team GB and World Champion Cavendish you jolly good eggs!

Also: in the latest Cycle Sport magazine there is a Graham Watson photo of Wiggins just after he got dropped on the Angliru. He has no shades on and I don't think I've seen a more desolate expression.

So...Froome or Wiggins ftw? ;-)

They'll be too tired from leading out the WC to have any legs for the non-flat stages.

Caught that on Dutch telly, she's been doing that for years. She got too famous in Holland doing her impersonation, so now's he's doing it with foreign guests.
