It looks like Bradley Wiggins will win his first Tour de France if he’s able to avoid crashing.
Tejay Van Garderen took back the white jersey on today’s stage.
Tomorrow is a rest day prior to spending a few days in the high mountains.
I didn’t know they got rest days. How many during the whole tour?
There are 2 rest days.
