Le Tour July 8 2006

Time trials are over. The Americans were horrible.

Landis was forced to move his handlebars just before going out by the judges and they ended up breaking. Had to switch bikes. Still ended up 2nd.

Zabriskie was bad. Hincapie was horrible ... Leipheimer wasn't expected to do well but man ...

Overall is getting recomputed ... everything is upside down.

Honchar from the Ukraine is first.
Landis 2nd by 1'00"
Zabriskie 10th by 2'03"
Hincapie 17th by 2'30"
Vandevelde 22nd by 3'25"
Leipheimer 62nd by 6'17"

This, to me, puts Floyd Landis in the driver's seat.
