Surprised that Movistar didn't (or couldn't) make more out of that yesterday. What an opportunity, and all for nothing.

Agreed. Movistar really should have capitalised on the Sky weakness.
In an interview, though, Froome said he rode within himself on all the climbs. He also said it was the hardest day on the bike, ever.
Merckx would have attacked, even if he was in yellow.

Hinault definitely would have done so.

Na. Armstrong rode defensive tactics his whole time.

Hinault was a nutter in the true Breton style. We need to have him cloned.

There was quite a lot of downhill after the last climb. Hard for an attack to stick unless someone is cooked.

Not strictly Le Tour, but definitely worth a read and with some fabulous photos:

I assume others are feeling a little lost this afternoon... I've even resorted to doing a little bit of work to pass the time ;-)

I was wondering why I didn't know what sort of stage it was today, and looking forward to the highlights, before I remembered it was a rest day!
