It's definitely spread out. Seems like Mayo will be losing a lot of time, about half an hour ago there were two pelotons and he was in the second. Stage 2 was exciting yesterday, lots of crashes, Fasinni broke his collar bone, a few others crashed.

17 H 02 - McEwen In Yellow?
With the time bonuses acquired for his second place, it's possible that Robbie McEwen with inherit the overall lead after stage three... we await official confirmation.

17 H 01 - Jean-Patrick Nazon Wins The Stage!
Jean-Patrick Nazon has won the stage ahead of Robbie McEwen!

17 H 10 - McEwen Earns The Yellow Jersey!
Robbie McEwen's third place is enough to put him in the yellow jersey for stage four. He leads Cancellara by 1".
The Lotto-Domo rider is the fourth Australian to wear the leader's jersey in the Tour de France.

That was right at the finish yesterday.

I'm not sure who was involved, but if you see the crash in slow motion on TV, you will notice that one of the riders is EXTREMELY lucky he was forced to wear a helmet.

I'd like to have OLN interview Lance every morning, NOT her. yeah, she's hot, but this is the lance show, not the sheryl crow show!

That or isolate the gene responsible for increasing protective gluteal mass. I should think enough DNA could be scavenged from one of Rosie O'Donnell's discarded Diet Coke cans to suffice.
