So Petacchi has now won four stages. Wow, where did this guy come from?

What I'm having trouble explaining to people is how a rider who has won most of the road race stages can be so far down in the GC.

At least now he apparently (finally) has the green. At least for tomorrow.

He really has power! I watched him in the Giro, but now he's going up against some of the heavy hitters of the peloton and smashing them.

Hey, when do you think that Super Mario will again announce his retirement in an effort to get some of the Italian and TdF spotlight? :D
