Broke my pelvis cycling 2 years ago. I feel his pain. Not a fan either but I wish him a speedy recovery.

We've shared the same experience. My pelvis was shattered five years ago. One month in hospital and twelve months of rehab for me.

Mine was not shattered and did not require surgery. I was back on the bike in 3 months. Sorry about your terrible injury.

Nibali wrapped it up with a victory in todays last stage in the mountains. 7 minute lead with a flat stage and time trial remaining then the ride into Paris. If Contador had not crashed Nibali would have only been a domestique. Tough break for Contador but happy to see an Italian win after a long drought. Looks like 2nd place is up for grabs and should bet decided in Saturday's time trial.

Your hopeful Tejay may still have a chance at the podium. My chances with Porte are zilch.

TJ needs to ride the time trial of his life to even come close. Maybe next year, he is getting better.
