American Floyd Landis had a "perfect ride" over the hors-catégory climb, Col de Joux-Plane, to Morzine in Stage 16 two days ago. He put himself in a position to retake the yellow jersey in the Tour de France (after having cracked badly the previous day). Today, he did just that in the time trial, and should be wearing the jersey on the podium tomorrow in Paris.
Oh, and incidentally, Landis is well-liked by the French. It makes all the difference not being a jerk.
