Today is a rest day so don't expect to see too many changes in the various classifications before tomorrow. For many the rest days are one of the less interesting days in the Tour, but for the real aficionados these are often the most fascinating of days. Expect lots of resting and fairly gentle bike riding. Special mention to Chris Horner.

He sounds like the right kind of employer.

I know Kwiatowski is Pollish, but thought Oleg is Russian. That's why he never has time for a chat.

Oops . . . I admit I'm a bit of an amateur in this kind of thing.

Cancellara out I hear. At this rate, there'll be no big names left by the end of the tour!

Any word on why he's out. As I said though, the afficionados amongst us realise how fascinating & tough the rest days can be.

It'll be tough for Frank Schleck to win the outright now.
