tour de france -- a very difficult weekend


Here are the incredibly difficult Stages 14 and 15 (Saturday and Sunday) as the Tour heads into the Pyrenees. This is going to be a wild weekend on the Tour, the wildness most likely starting tomorrow about half way through this very long and hot stage. As Ivan Basso said, the Tour will be won in the Pyrenees. The attacks on Armstrong -- still in yellow -- are going to come by all the top contenders. Watch especially for Rasmussen, Basso, Moreau, and Vinokourov to make a go of it. Anyone who's not able to cut it this weekend is not going to be on the podium in Paris. If you are in the US and have OLN on cable, watch!
