Stage 11 - Col de Portel

By Beth Schneider - July 16th, 2008

Stage 11: Lannemezan – Foix 

Today was a pretty unexciting day in the race.  There was an early break of 12 guys.  The peloton didn’t expend much energy chasing as the weather has finally stopped raining and it’s beginning to get hot.  There was a cat 1 climb, the Col du Portel.  The first guy over the top was Moinard from the Cofidis team but he was passed on the descent to the finish.  The stage was won by Arvesen from CSC and Cadel Evans is still in yellow. 

I’m on the moto tomorrow and hope there will be some scenery and good opportunities for photos.
