yeah....i'm thinking about stage 7 is when it's gonna start getting crazy

just finished todays stage and albeit long it had some very exciting moments.....specifically the break away fighting for the polka dot jersey.....i had not realized that they change the points for "king of the mountain" so that now anything under a cat 2 climb rewards 1 point to the first climber and no more.....so it was fun watching these two first time riders fight for the right to wear...my personal favorite....jersey.....the end of stage one had quite a bitch of a climb but Cancellara led an amazing and very much a surprise attack hoping to keep his 7 seconds......he lost the stage to another first time rider but kept his lead

tomorrow will be all about the sprinters.....i'm really curious as to what Cavendish will do....as i know his eyes are filled with gold this year and not green....and i'm looking forward too war between Wiggins and Evans

great first stage with very little drama....ie no major wrecks and all 192 riders crossed the line
