Thomas Voelker Dropped on First Climb on Trip to Alpe-d'Huez


Come on admit it! You would kind of like to see the under dog Thomas Voeckler wear yellow in Paris on Friday as the overall winner of the Tour De France. Even seven time champion Lance Armstrong has taken note saying he might actually win this thing.

Of course he has to survive the trip to Alpe-d'Huez today, and he has been dropped in the first climb today and as of right now, Andy Schleck is the virtual yellow jersey wearer as he has made up a 15 second deficit and has placed 16 seconds advantage to Voeckler.

This is going to be fun to watch today, and I hope Voeckler finds the stregnth to survive the attacks.
