That's an excellent photo. How he got away relatively uninjured is a miracle.
Not the most popular chap on the tour is our Cav?

Hard one
Nasty crash thats for sure. I dont think either were to blame really, it just looked like one of those racing incidents. They both came either side of Ciolik (?) and then both came round the front and into each other. I was watching it live on eurosport and you can see Hausler is also looking at the ground for a long time beforehand, not ahead, but then Cav comes across the front of the Milram rider :? Dont think anyone should be punished. They certainly got beat up for it, if you get a chance to see the slow motion replay watch hauslers head as first he gets a bike in the back of the head then as his head pinballs forward he cops another in the front of his helmet. Cav just gets run over again and again with Boonen sideways trying to avoid him (without much luck).
Nasty business but from what I heard this morning most are OK but the AG2R rider has broken his hip
