Nice perspective with the Women/wives etc. What a nice story it all turned out to be.

It was published awhile back that Cadel was riding with an eccentric chain ring. Was that the case in the Tour?

Can’t find anywhere explaining why Cadel had to switch out of the yellow today - ? I was hoping he’d ride it all the way.

Chuck: By “eccentric” chain ring, what do you mean? Where did you see this published?

Sterling_I’m pretty sure that Cadel just didn’t want to take any chances and rode the bike he was comfortable with after all the photos. And Chuck, I’m pretty positive that Cadel is just riding a normal Dura-Ace chainring on a Shimano 7800 SRM crankset.
