OMC Did you see the video? I have not but it sounds like he put in a decent attack or two while Lance rode defensively. |

From what I read on Cyclingnews.com, Tyler can only attack in the saddle. His broken C-Bone is keeping him from standing. I am sure he could put in some more vicious attacks if he could get out of the saddle Dave |

When they weren't
attacking, they were on Lance's wheel. Lance set the tempo. Beloki set the tempo just as much as Armstrong. |

Tough yes, but if he is never able to race at 100% it doesn't matter
how tough he is because it will never show in the results. "OMC" wrote in message om... Tyler showed what a tough guy he really is ! Simply amazing ! Attacking Lance and the rest of the lead group. WOW !!! Just how good would he be at 100 % ? OMC |

Beloki leading the climb
Keith wrote:
It turned out that only a few could stay with him. He responded to attacks from Beloki and Hamilton but not Mayo or Vino. It looked like he tried a few seated accelerations but couldn't shake Beloki or Hamilton. When they weren't attacking, they were on Lance's wheel. Lance set the tempo. I watched it live on French TV and it seems we didn't see the same thing...in between the times Heras was leading, Beloki did most of the climb in front, with Lance happy to follow and then sprint at the end. I watched the Dutch TV feed on my computer. It was hard to follow at times, but I saw Lance up there most of the time after Heras got burned off the back and before he caught back up. The only time that I saw Beloki on the front was for a short bit after he was reeled in from an attack. In any case, no big attack from Armstrong but think of the guys who couldn't hold his wheel. Today's stage wasn't as dominant as some in the past, but he still has the yellow jersey. He has been pretty good at keeping it. Todd Kuzma |

Hamilton: One tough S.O.B !
Just saw CSC team leader Bjarne Riis interviewed (Danish TV): With the
broadest and brightest wall-to-wall smile he praised Hamilton (like he have done every other day in the Tour) and emphazised the spirit and guts of this wonderful rider. Carlos Sastre (also in a cheerful mood) called him a Robocop ... Let's all take one day at a time though - he gave it everything today. He was tired to death when he got off the bike. Maybe he'll have to pay a hard price tomorrow. What if ..... he hadn't had that damned accident on the very first stage? Svend "Jan T Andresen" skrev i en meddelelse ...

I could feel the bones moving around all the time, but after the first couple days, the pain was not that bad. I wonder how that compares to a fracture with no separation. Maybe the stress of holding the bone together makes it worse. Todd Kuzma |

I am sure he could put in some more vicious attacks if he could get out of the saddle Dave I was on my ride today thinking about Tyler. I have had broken bones before and even races once with a healing broken ankle. I know from experience that injuries to the torso can be worse than injuries below the knee. Anything between the shoulders and the knees can make it nearly impossible to develop any power. Anyway, what I was thinking about was what it must have been like coming off the Galibier with that broken collarbone. That must have been pure hell! Imagine a harsh stop. In his condition, I can think of a hundred things that have to be worse than climbing. |
