There was a turn and the cross winds kicked in off the ocean. Then Columbia created a small split and just went with it. The rest ofg the teams were just caught napping.

Lance has a good chance at wearing Yellow tomorrow.

George H. made it sound like Garmin was tired of waiting for someone to come up and change this from a charity ride to a world class race so they just went. He was very explicit about not naming sprinter teams though.
