FlipBoardApparently Dane Michael Rasmussen now leads the world's most prestigious cycling event after winning the 8th stage by 2'47". Rasmussen, one of the best climbers in the sport, secured the the coveted yellow jersey on the tour's second day in the Alps. If he is deemed the best in the mountains during the course of the race, he receives a red polka-dot shirt — good for him! Now, here's a crash from Stage 2:
That soundtrack made it seem like there was a mystery afoot. A crappy French mystery. Anyway, there were no major crashes today, probably because they're not letting the riders dope as much as previous years. I say let these guys inject themselves with whatever they want: steroids, extra hemoglobin, black rhinoceros penis. Then they can compete against horses, motorcycles or even NASCAR. But, if they keep restricting the supplements, we could be left with the sport displayed after the jump:
I would never watch that on TV . . . unless the only other thing on was golf. -KD
get a haircut, hippy.
I tried black rhino cock once, good times ! (note to self, dont ever think you are that clever ever again!)
As for the guy on the unicycle, after about ten second's my mind wondered and i began to wish someone would come along and push him over, say… some fat smart arsed kid or ken dodd and his tickling stick. Anything but that!
boring!!!!!
Not to fuck with the humor, but…

No video footage, but that's pretty hardcore for "no major crash", ya know?
*yawn* I'd rather be watching the Women's World Cup of Softball.
And I am. I can't stop watching it.
About damn time you started covering the TDF. Rasmussen will stay in the lead until he has to ride all by him self in a time trial, then he will fall off his bike constantly. I miss ole one nut, he made this sport exciting.
