11 days to go
No rest for the wicked.
Or so they say, but how come all those evil pill poppers and corporate moguls are sunning themselves on the Cote D'Azur today. While other more angelic types are spending hours in the car just getting to work. I would consider beating the traffic by cycling to the office if it wasn't over 50 miles away.

| Kiss of Death |
In a shameless headline grabbing stunt, Brit David Millar has boldly pronounced that Lance Armstrong is finished. I don't know why these sports people never learn to keep their mouths shut as they always end up eating humble pie in the end. Mouth shut. Humble pie. Messy.

Bad brioche |

| Lance Armstrong narrowly avoided angry protesters during yesterday's stage. Apparently, they had been given a dodgy brioche by one of the competitors |
|
And why do they think that just by spouting off a few sound bites that Lance is finished or posturing that Armstrong has lost his bottle they can attract everyone's attention. It's pathetic.

| What's a peloton between friends |
I have to admit that for several days of this countdown, before I became a Tour de France expert, I was bluffing a little and had no idea what a peloton was. I don't know how I carried it off so convincingly
But anyway this useful page clears up that one and many other pieces of tour jargon. Mind you, when you really think about it, all it is, is a web page translating a few French words - so maybe I should have gone the whole hog in my efforts to serve and pointed you here instead. Just try peloton and you will see why informed commentators are speculating that the US postal team have been planted in France to search for those WMDs.
Enjoy your rest day...
