For me, however, the big surprise is Voeckler keeping the yellow jersey one more day. The joy yesterday was watching Hushovd take the stage.
Absolutely!
Has there ever been a TDF leader who looked happier to be wearing the jersey than Voeckler? Hushovd has impressed me too, hanging onto the jersey for longer than I thought he could and then actually winning an alpine stage. I don't think that either can win the whole Tour but they certainly have provided two "feel good" side bar stories.
I'm loving it.
