Andy Schleck

Has Tour changed for ever with "Chaingate" incident?

I am not sure that the non-cycling public are getting the best impression of our sport from this years Tour de France.

We saw the headbutting incident involving Mark Renshaw (the first two weren't butts, he was merely fending off Julian Dean who was crossing into his line) and now the whole 'should he shouldn't he' Contador incident.

Contador:"I didn't know of Schleck's problems;" Schleck" "I'm really angry"

Contador does an Arsene Wenger and claims not to have seen incident; what do you think?

Alternative Tour de France Week 1

Despite claiming on a number of occasions that the blog would be updated more regularly, I am still floundering for time. So this is more of a round-up that I would usually be wanting to do but I hope you enjoy it anyway.

This time last year I was making my way home from Catalunya having watched the first week stages into Perpignan and Barcelona. It was all about the atmosphere and being there but in 2010 the first week has actually been about the racing.
