Aldag is simply impressive

So today's stage was simply fantastic. Aldag was in the breakaway group from the start, got caught up at one point, then attacked hard and scored a fantastic second place on the stage. Great stuff.

And Virenque also impressed with his stage win and taking the yellow jersey - even if it's probably only for one day. Good on him.

That's the kind of Tour I love, with surprises and strong performances. Excellent.
