Le Tour: Stage 13

Le.  Tour.  De.  France.

Well everyone (umm.. is anyone talking about this besides me?) is talking about Contador’s 11 second move on Schleck up the New Cross Rib (also called The Jalabert Ascension for you SG-1 Fans).

Disagree with my translations?  It’s not my fault the French don’t speak a sensible language like… oh say Southern US English.

‘You all’ is just you.  ‘All you all’ is you and your cousins.  Yawl is a sail boat with multiple masts the stern most of which is behind the rudder.

I’m glad we’ve settled that,

So it’s age and guile (27) vs. youth and enthusiasm.  I’m pretty sure how that works out.  Today’s stage is even less interesting than yesterday’s, 122 miles from Rodez to Revel, 3 category 4s and 2 category 3s, overall descending.

  1. but I did work last night. Tommorrow will be good. I hope. Then I find out Vino won the stage.

    Glad for him because Contador snatched his win the other day to take time from Schleck. I am hoping for serious mountain drama. Why don’t I like Contador? Much tho Lance was not well liked he at least mentioned his team when he was the man when being interviewed. Contador is sorta like blah blah I am superior…. Of course for all I know he loves puppies and children and is a great guy. Really how many world class athletes are very cuddly people?
