Last day in the Pair o'Knees.
6 major climbs but very little 'action' till the last 10k of the final one.
Whittled down to a group of 12 contenders eyeballing each other intensely.
Andy Bunk Bed took a few flyers off the front which were closed down almost immediately.
Boo Boo is reported as have a 'fundamental' problem which is cited as a possible cause of his apparent lack of form.
Cuddles is being cautious as well.
The tension escalated with every pedal turn.
Nothing got resolved and the stage ended with the GC looking very much the same as it was at the start of the day.
The surprise of the day, even to himself probably, was the man whom I will stop calling Monkey on a Stick as of now.
Mr. Voeckler defended his yellow jersey against all comers and looked like the only man who deserved to wear it.
Roll on the alps.
