After today's stage Robbie is in the Green jersey.

Its almost all climbs from now until Paris.
Does anyone know how many more stages are
going to really affect Points classification?
From looking at the TdF site all I see for
intermediate timing is in stage 19.

So, Will Robbie keep the Green into paris?

It seems that RacerX was going to watch the highlights later and now he knows some of the results.

If you had put something like 'Competition for Green Jersey' in the thread title he would have avoided the thread for fear of spoiling his viewing later. The thread title sort of gave it away.

I'm sure there's no real harm done.

(As an Aussie, I'm thrilled that McEwan's in green. I wonder how long it'll last. Until Paris I hope.)

RacerX,

My sincerest apologies. I won't post results etc. until
day after.
I was sitting at work listening on OLN got all
caught up in the excitement.

Yup, isn't it nice to see someone from the Gold Coast actually doing well at something that isn't surfing or swimming? And someone from Mermaid Waters as well (you can probably guess which suburb I live in, can't you?)

Aussies, O'grady wasn't to shabby in stage 10, either.

The Aussie sprinters are anamazing bunch, but I don't think McEwen will hold onto the green jersey. He has to make it over the mountains, first, and I'm not sure he's going to like that. Besides, when O'Grady's on-form, he'll have a lot more than just Zabel to worry about.
