I wondered the same thing, which is little help in answering your question. Perhaps he will chalk it up to the inevitable charge of the peleton, which is a sorry excuse as Lance should be able to control it better than not at all.

US Postal led the charge yesterday, and even appeared to be frustrated when other teams did not do their part to speed the first part of the peloton ahead, knowing that the riders of the second part of the peloton would lose more and more time. The comentators made it seems as if it was just good strategy, which I suppose it is, but that does not answer my question.
US Postal had a strong day. 1'07" over second place Phonak (Hamilton). 1'19" over T-Mobile (Ullrich). 2'35" over Euskatel (Mayo). Mayo is hurting. He may essentially be out of it before they even get to the mountains.
I'm like Mr. Sporty McSporto Sports Guy these days. I hear the chicks dig that. Maybe I'll get onto Zesty's invite list if I keep it up.
