The Best Cycling Team Ever?
Posted by Gordon Smith

It doesn't get any closer than that! Pieter Weening (59) was declared the winner over Andreas Klöden (14), but this may have been as close to a tie as I have ever seen. (The Eurosport headline is "Weening Pips Klöden"!)

The real story of the day, however, was Lance Armstrong's Discovery team: where were they? The riders tackled their first mountain today, and Lance's team abandoned him. This team was pumped up as the "greatest cycling team every assembled," but if they are AWOL on a Category 2 climb, what's going to happen when they get to the largest mountains?
