rob16584 42 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 :shrug_no: :smile: I guess it must be a tie for the lead with the lot of them as there is no yellow jersey on display! Link to post Share on other sites
wisemanp 0 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 I think you're right Rob! :shrug_no: Is anyone watching Le Tour this year? I've been interested for many years... The last week has been so exciting! And great to have Brits doing well; Wiggins in the General Classiment and Cavendish in the Points competion. Also hats off to Lance Armstrong who has come back after 3 years out and is right up near the top! Link to post Share on other sites
dgor 0 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Good one John! Yellow was on ration, hence the lack of a jersey :shrug_no: Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 A rare photo' indeed, John - from, I think, Stage 5, which was a team time trial stage, so you won't see the yellow jersey....... :shrug_no: Nice one, mate - and thanks for the HU on the tour - brilliant sport! :smile: heers - Dai.
