Contador vs. Rasmussen!

Stage 15 saw our battle between Contador and Rasmussen continue. Wednesday's Pyrenean Monster culminating at the peak of Col d'Aubisque, in my opinion, will be the decisive stage of our 2007 Tour de France! Evans, Leipheimer, and Kloden are technically hanging on by their potential time gains in the final TT, but at 4:00, 5:25 and 5:34 respectively coming into a stage that will likely see them loose another minute or two to the climbers, the TT trio are battling for 3rd place. How sweet would it be to have a Disco 1, 3 though! Contador sits at 2:34 to Rass, and Rass lost :37 to Contador in the first TT. The young Disco-gun will be packing the heat, and the slight Dane will be reaching for a fresh pair of Sidi's!

After Vino's rest day, he took the not too interested contenders by storm and notched another stage win for Astana. In pool news Gerald continues to crush the field with a Vino pick! John and I continue our dual, I pulled ahead again on Vino to show.

1. Gerald-72
2. Adam-31
