Robbie McEwen (Australia) won his second stage of the 2005 Tour de France today (7th in all) by beating Magnus Backstedt (Sweden). German Fabian Wegmann was in front of the pack all day, but the sprinters' teams pulled him back in. There was no change in the overall classification, but that could change tomorrow, as there are five catagorized climbs in the 144-mile stage.
Mr. McEwen looks excited here--remeinds of that image of Lance from a previous year. BTW, Lance put on #71 this morning!
