Kudos to all the riders in “Le Tour” this year!!

I was on the edge of my seat, even while reading the live updates online of today’s stage 15.

All I can say is WOW! I can’t wait to watch the replay tonight!

“At the end of the 15th stage, Armstrong has increased his lead over Ullrich. The American is now 1′07″ ahead of the German in the generall classification. Vinokourov began the day within 18″ of the overall lead, he finished it with a deficit of 2′45″.

The final individual time-trial is going to be exciting as well.

Over one minute is a lot of time for any rider to make up against Lance in a time-trial, but then again, Jan Ullrich is not just any rider!

I’m still on the edge of my seat!

Wow, what a Tour!

BTW, Tyler Hamilton also finished up with the lead group today in 7th place, which puts him in 7th overall as well. Amazing!
