An Epic Struggle

Today's stage of the Tour de France was magnificent. Anyone with access to OLN in the USA (or the appropriate service elsewhere) would likely find todays stage, especially the final 10 Km (6.2 miles), to be worthwhile.

I won't give away the details, but this stage, finishing with the legendary climb up the Alpe d'Huez (pronounced alp duh-wez), was superb. A word of warning, the field of riders was so broken up that unless you are a regular tour follower, because so much is going on in so many places, feeling somewhat lost may be the order of the day. Don't worry, it'll all become clear by the end.
