Landis Cracks!

5:38 PM Landis loses big time
He started the in the yellow jersey, but Floyd Landis lost more than eight minutes to his closest rivals on the final 18km climb today. Well, it was good while it lasted, but the whole GC picture has changed. Pereiro is back in yellow, but we'll see if we don't see another big change in the picture tomorrow... another tough mountain stage.

Ouch! I wonder if his hip pain got too intense? Whatever the case, this is about as wide open a tour as you could imagine.

I think he bonked, just plain bonked. It would take a lot of pain to stop him. Hey Griff, did you check out that piece about Landis in last Sunday's NYT Magazine?

No, but if its a free view I can catch it when I get home tomorrow. I like that he came out of mtn biking and PA just to be a homer.
