Up at 6:11. I immediately turn on BBC for the Tour de France. Andy Schleck launches himself again, Voeckler clinging on behind him like a limpet as the rest are briefly left behind. Schleck cannot sustain it, though, and soon the group are back with him. Whew! Team Leopard Trek! Rock on! People travel from all over the world to watch Le Tour at the Plateau de Beille. Jelle Vanendert crosses the line. I hear comments... Some needs to grab the Tour by the scruff of the neck. Wha?
The Basques are present in massive numbers. They're waving their Basque flags. Thomas Voeckler brilliantly retained his yellow jersey.
Ben Swift Tweets: That's another stage done. Tough day but legs felt pretty good. Flat day tomorrow and then a nice rest day perfect. Listen to Wait, Wait. The co-creator of the microblogging site Twitter - Biz Stone - plays a game called "I can hardly clear my throat in 140 characters." Three questions about very long-winded people. Yes! Biz Stone plays Not My Job. Train up to Uwajimaya. Lots of Sounder fans heading up to the Sounders vs. Rapids match. Get some mushrooms, Fritos, Sho Chiku Bai, rice and tomatoes. #255 bus back to my place. Listen to Rick Steves' show. Composer Sites in Europe; Portugal Beyond Lisbon; Food Adventures. Pasta salad for dinner. Watch Star Trek - Operation Annihilate! and The City On The Edge Of Forever.
