Amazing! I've been watching a lot of the TDF. Through 2 weeks, 1400 miles, and lots of flat rides, 4 riders where within 8 seconds. But after the Sunday stage in the Alps, it looked like Lance could be outrun by Contador and others and he lost 1:30. Today, when it looked like he was getting left behind again, he kicked it into high gear and caught up, while climbing a mountain and passing others like they were standing still.

There still are a few mountain stages and an individual time trial. It could be an exciting finish.
He may not win but 2nd ain't too shabby.

What's the current standing anyway? how many seconds back is he? I try to watch it on TV but it never features him riding.
