There's been some great racing but it seems to me the organisers aren't going to be happy until someone is killed.
A lot of the roads are not suitable for riding let alone racing and tomorrow they're heading up the col du Galibier where they've had around 1 metre of snow.

They've already lost quite a few riders in crashes including Bradley Wiggins who was on top form this year.

I love to see exciting racing but not at the risk to riders lives. >:(

I am! Been a cyclist for most of my life and love watching the Tour (not a fan of Liggett and Sherwen though)

They do seem to be using some of the tightest and twistiest descents they can pull off the map this year... And too many silly bottlenecks!

Shame wiggins left Garmin for sky, might have been better place last year, and probably better managed!
