Yesterday at Le' Tour: 07

Oh, despair no, wait, I mean, hurrah! No, no, I mean this is a terrible day no, I mean... (ad infinitum)
Not only does Sky's 39% owner ditch the wrong red top but Bradley Wiggins hits the deck hard in a mass crash and breaks his collar-bone.
In the media's rush to bring the events to the world, indignity was heaped on tragedy when close-ups reveal Brad's string vest poking out through the rips in his jersey.
His team hung back for him thus losing everything they'd gained over the last few days.

On a lighter note,
Cav takes the intermediate and the final sprint which gives him his 17th stage victory.

Quote of the day from Gary Imlach after seeing Bradley Wiggins leave hospital:
"At least Brad's happy, until the morphine wears off".
