I'm pretty impressed that Boonen did so well - he's not that far off (1.27) the
guys who you expect to finish at the top on a 42.5km flat ITT.

Oro = Gold
Amarillo = Yellow
Easy to remember if you'd ever been to Amarillo, Texas since all the
residents have yellow teeth.

Was I too hasty? I know for legal reasons it can't be called (the
Spanish for) 'maillot jaune' officially, but I was still under the
impression most Spanish media just call it amarillo not oro.

Anyway, how about that Boonen, eh?

I know. Still, I think the norm is: 'el jersey oro' vs. 'Leipheimer en
amarillo'.

Rubbish although this race will be forever tainted,
without the Millar line no one can say who is or isn't
but merely insinuate that they all are.
