Stage 6

Its all about Mark

Mark Renshaw, what you say? You hear the name somewhere between 3k to go and 200 meters, you see a white and yellow kit pulling (launching) another white and yellow kit for the win, but do we ever really see him? Have you ever watched an interview, or read one? Renshaw is like a gov't super weapon that is top secret, he is there but you have no knowledge of his existance. Renshaw is Area 51. How amazing is Mark? He launches Cavo the Manx Missile. Boom!!! it happened again. Sorry Garmin, you guys would have killed if the stage was 500 meters shorter, or if someone moved it 500m and did not tell HTC.

You have to hand it to Tyler, hanging onto Cavo's wheel with a bad elbow and still getting 2nd. At least Tyler has an excuse for getting spanked, he probably has a Dr.'s note excusing him from the ridicule. I hate it that he is not 100% to give Cavo a race. Thor? Do you need to phone a friend? Hope you are ready to give up the green, Jersey that is. Petacchi, and McEwen, "the old guys" even beat Thor to the line.

McEwen was taken out at the end of the race, or should I say after the race was over, an official "jumped in front of me". Can't this guy catch a break or is Karma pulling his card? After the race a couple of domistiques got into a little fisticuffs over a rubbed handlebar, maybe his handlebar was spoken for. ???? I'm just glad it didn't turn into a slap fight, we don't look b'd@ss slapping in spandex.

Stage 7 tomorrow.
Have you seen the profile? It looks like my heart rate after a shot of Espresso. It is flat and then It Bumps a LITTle IT BUMPS SoMe MORE AND THEN IT gets CRAZY. Three Cat 2's at the end with a somewhat uphill finish. Time to see le grimpeur do their things. Sorry Frank, hope you are healing well, would have loved to see you fly.
