Tour update and other stuff
As expected, Floyd Landis took the overall lead in the Tour. Tomorrow’s stage is considered to be a formality. It’s a stage meant to celebrate the Tour, not to attack. Even if someone did attack, Landis has about a one minute lead and no one is going to put a minute into him on a flat stage. But no one would even think of trying that. So anyway, Floyd Landis won the Tour becoming on the 3rd American to ever do so. Sastre somewhat collapsed during today’s stage and Kloden and Pereiro both rode great time trials, so Sastre is off the podium and he’ll finish in 4th. He didn’t truly collapse, but he wasn’t able to put together a great ride like the other cyclists at the top of the overall standings.
In other news, I leave for Las Vegas on Monday. I’m really excited to be out there with so many other people that I spend so much time talking to online. While I’ve met a lot of people already at places like Foxwoods, AC, Atlantis or during my last trip to Vegas, this will also be my first chance to meet a lot of other people. In particular, I’m really really excited for the P5s party on July 27th from 6-8 PM at New York New York. It’s too bad it got moved from the Bellagio, but I still expect it to be a great time. Also, I will be taking a ton of pictures all over the place, so look for a lot of photo-filled blog entries in the next two to three weeks. If you see me out there and you’re a blog reader, be sure to introduce yourself. I’m a friendly guy.
