Yesterday's Tour De France stage was very refreshing. It looked like real racing rather than the usual 'catch the break by 1 minute every 10 kilometres' to overhaul some poor hopeful with 500 metres to go. The Tour’s youngest competitor, Thibaut Pinot passed leader Frederik Kessiakoff
(Astana) with 17km to race and launched a bold attack that left him with
enough of a gap to hold off a host of big name challengers who pursued
him intensely. Aside from the cycling the show of emotion from Marc Madiot in the team car left photographers struggling to decide where to point their instruments.
