Anyone notice how Liggett is loosing it? He's constantly messing up riders names and being corrected by Sherwen.

I'm confused by that one. What was he hoping for? Did he seriously think Kloden could hang on his jump?

Wow @ Lance. I really didn't think he'd be in fighting form for the tour.

Hot damn!

Nibali catches him. Wowza, he must be descending like a madman!
