TDF Pool: Stage 2

So, thanks to time bonuses, Thor Hushovd is back in yellow after stage 2 of the 2006 Tour! A nice recovery from his dramatic blood-covered finish yesterday.

No such changes in the Tour Pool, though, with Peter Metuzals still leading over Helena DeVeer and Jamie Bryan. The points spread is very even down the pool, reflecting the variety of picks, but the Tour's first abandon (Danilo Di Luca, suffering from a fever) puts Il Gatto in the unfortunate position of having the only negative score in the Pool ... way to go, Marco.

Until tomorrow ... Kris W.
