| Nobody seems to have mentioned this but Joly cracked badly
| in Stage 15, he finished 7:51 behind the stage winners
| thats a mere 6:37 behind Kloden and Landis. Unfortunately
| for him it catapulted him 4 places up the order
| further away from the Laterne Rouge. He gave up
| almost 27 minutes to Wim Vansevenant, Aitor Hernandez
| and Gert Steegmans and 28 minutes to Jimmy Casper. This
| means he has gone from a comfortable 16 minute lead
| in the category to almost 11 minutes behind
| Vansevenant. With his form shown on stage 15 it
| is going to be very hard for him to get that time
| back in the mountains which seem to agree with him.
| Clearly he will have to hope the flats disagree with
| him more than the slopes of the alps have.

I had to reread this.

I think his best hope is that his breakfast disagrees with him.

Whatever he did overnight to prepare to reclaim his lead, he must have
overcompensated, because he didn't finish today. Vansevenant's lead
must be considered safe now - he even has a teammate in 2nd place to
defend him.

I guess Joly was overwright from his unexpected ride on
l'aple d'huez. YOu've definitely got to say
Davitamon-Lotto have it wrapped up and with the green
jersey pretty safe and Cadel Evans still in with
a chance for the yellow it could be a rainbow
tour for them!

Must be worrying for Flandis, the laterne rouge cracked
on stage 15, the yellow jersey on stage 16. The ex-laterne
rouge withdrew on stage 16, the yellow jersery.....

Vansevenant and Steegmans continue to slug it out,
while the 2004 Lanterne Rouge marks them from four
minutes back. Sad to see team Discovery is not in it.
