Stage 6

The Cobra pounces, the Green Bullet comes up just short, the wheelsucker sucks wheel, CVV makes it exciting by doing what the wheel sucker never does--i.e., attack--Schumi crashes, the Kid loses time, and at the end of the day Kirchen is in yellow. Exciting stage. This bodes well for Sunday and Monday in the Pyrenees.



In the FGBC TdF Pool, Fuck It, Let's Go Bowling comes up with a big stage win, followed by the Frequent Flyers and Dolphin Ankle Tatoos. And we have yet another new leader in the GC. That didn't last too long, Jonny. Team Runner Up has a slim lead over Zed's Dead, Baby, and the Frequent Flyers sit in third place.

I think Cadel is racing smart. Conserve energy, use it only when needed. Boring? Maybe, but it will win him this Tour. OK, I hope he attacks at least one day in the mountains, but a GC guy should still be mostly invisible at this point in the race.
And I have to agree with the Tour day Schmalz guy that Evans does look like he's made out of plasticene, but that's beside the point...
