Looks like we have a race

Wherein no spoilers

Even though yesterday was the first mountain stage of the Tour Day France, no one stood out. Probably all were playing it easy for today: 5 major climbs with a summit finish. Starts off a wee bit tentative, then gets interesting on the Col du Portillon, then gets very interesting on the Puerto de Beret with a 3-way sprint for the finish. Is there a new yellow jersey tonight? May be...may be not...I'll just say that Dessel rode hard and you'll need to watch the OLN coverage to night to find the results.

Or just go read the OLN stage highlights and the final climb at tdfblog.com.

Tomorrow is flat and downhill, so basically a rest day for anyone in contention.

You've been eating Tofutti again, haven't you?

I think I've finally figured it out: You're still in the throes of withdrawl from all the excitement of Curling last winter, and so you keep looking for an effective form of methadone to ease the pain.

Yeah. That must be it.
