The Tour de France Becomes Entertaining?

I woke up yesterday morning, feeling sports deprivation. Wimbledon was over, the PGA tournament was over, and there was a gap in the World Cup play.
I had completely forgotten the Tour de France! Now there is a reason for that - if you want boring events, go for early days in the Tour de France.
Not this year!
Yesterday was pretty entertaining, though undoubtedly painful for a lot of riders. Crashes everywhere!
And crashes today too!
But what an exciting finish! And in such inhospitable conditions.
Whatever drugs these guys may take, they sure impress me.
This is a totally nutty leg; I hope they are all like this!
Cancellara reclaims his yellow jersey. Poor Chavanel had to keep changing bikes.
