No big news from yesterday’s Tour action. A breakaway that lasted most of the stage was finally caught in the last kilometer. Unfortunately, the caught man (Fucha) slowed up when he was caught, which caused a huge crash, and most of the peloton (all the big stars) had to trickle around the crash over the next five minutes. It’s not a big deal, though, because Tour rules state that any mishaps that happen within the last kilometre don’t count — everyone gets the same time. Tom Boonan (from Belgium) won the stage in a sprint finish.

Lance had a small fall early in the stage but is totally fine. Today’s stage is another flat stage so we’re not expecting anything major.
