15KM to go in Stage 15
Here's the last of my updates to you before I post the 9PM spoilers.
At 15KM from the finish, the four breakaway riders are still in the lead by 12:35. The pace behind them is heating up and riders are being dropped off the back.
The last of the climbs for the stage is about 3KM away and it's a biggie - a category 1.
Riders who have been flung off the back include O’Grady, Sorensen, Eisel and several others.
As mentioned, the next few entries will appear after 9PM EST so as not to ruin the race result for those of you who hate SPOILERS.

Better Diagnosis for Pereiro
From letour.com,
Despite early diagnosis of a possible broken femur for Pereiro, the race director Christian Prudhomme has just confirmed that the 2006 Tour champion has sustained a broken shoulder; nothing else. He is on his way to hospital in Cuneo.
CRASH on the descent
Oscar Pereiro crashed at the 80KM point of the race, during the descent on the back side of col Agnel.
According to race radio, Pereiro slammed into the guardrail and launched down to the road below. He broke his femur and his shoulder and was taken by ambulance to the hospital.
Accounts say that he was conscious the entire time.
The crash - on wet roads - has dramatically slowed the rest of the peloton and the breakaway bunch is now up around 15 minutes ahead.
As noted, Pereiro was given the status of winner of the 2006 Tour de France after Floyd Landis' appeal fell flat. So the 2006 champion is out of the 2008 race.
Now there are 154 riders in the race. If this keeps up, we'll barely have enough riders to make a peloton by the end of Stage 15.

Dropping like flies
Two more riders have quit the Tour de France today.
Before reaching the top of col Agnel, Stijn Devolder and Mark Renshaw both dropped out.
That leaves 155 riders in the field.

The hors category climb
According to letour.com,
The breakaway group is at the base of this climb and has a lead in the range of 12 minutes over the peloton.
Details Of Col Agnel
The first ascent of the 15th stage is the Col Agnel. The sun is shining as Gerrans, Arrieta, Martinez and Pate make their way up the 2,744m high pass that peaks at the 58km mark. The climb is 20.5km long with an average gradient of 6.6 percent. The steepest sections are the 16th, 17th and 19th kilometers which are nine percent.
The breakaway group is at the base of this climb and has a lead in the range of 12 minutes over the peloton.
30KM into Stage 15
At 30KM into the 15th stage, Gerrans, Arrieta, Martinez and Danny Pate have a lead of 9:10 over the peloton.
The group broke away early and is being allowed to remain away by Cadel Evans' Silence-Lotto team which is keeping the pace at the front of the peloton.
I suspect this will change and someone on Team Columbia will try to bridge the gap in the next 50KM.
The big climbs are coming. Remember - category 1 and an hors category today.

I WAS RIGHT
Finally, in a Tour de France that has seen doping and odd results and crashes, I've been proven correct.
OK, once out of about 35 predictions isn't that good, but I'll take it.
Team Columbia rider Mark Canvendish has abandoned the Tour before the start of Stage 15.
That means the mantle of leader falls to George Hincapie and this is the stage that could see a total turnaround in standings.
Stay tuned.

And into Italy we go
Stage 15 is where the heat gets turned up on the riders. The hills become alive with the whir of the cassette and the riders start to feel lactic acid build up in their legs.
Little climbers will go skyward and sprinters will abandon the tour. In fact, I'll check with race radio in a second to see if there really are 157 riders left in the Tour at the start of this stage.
Also, even with six stages left after today, the riders get one more rest day tomorrow and then it's north toward Paris.
If you've been slouching and not paying attention, the only think you've missed so far are two doping scandals, one team abandoning the race (an entire team), a rider from the UK winning FOUR stages and Australian Cadel Evans solidifying his hold on the overall lead.
This will be dual posted at JeffCutler.com and at TDF08.com. But if you're rabid for racing news, come on over to TDF08.com for regular stage updates.
As always, no spoilers until after 9PM EST.

Stage 15 Overview, Picks and Comment
First time in this year's Tour that the riders go above 2500 feet in altitude. They're headed to Italy over the Alps and will hit a category 1 and an hors category climb on their 183KM journey.
This is where the real shakeout will happen.
Abandons today will include Thor Hushovd, Robbie Mc Ewen and even Mark Cavendish.
You will see a major attack from George Hincapie as someone from Team Columbia has to take over the torch for the team.
And you'll see Cadel Evans either reel in Big George or take an even more commanding lead.
The wildcard in all this is Christian Vandevelde. He could pull a Floyd Landis (sas drugs) and create some real drama for the rest of the race.
Speaking of rest, we're off on Monday and then Tuesday is back out of Italy and north toward Alpe d'Huez.
Cool and the gang!
