Video of Menchov going down, getting back on and having one huge rush of adrenalin after he finished. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47q_p6ts9gc R That mechanic earned his pay today.

If their were time penalties for fouling a cyclist, half the peloton would be rolling around on the ground holding their knees. When Menchov bounced up I was wondering if it crossed his mind to pick up the bike and run with it. It was pretty amazing how he and the bike kept sliding.
