Michael Rogers, leader of T-Mobile’s Tour de France 2007 team, who has been blogging in the Telegraph UK and providing us with a look on the inside, says (after crashing and quitting the Tour yesterday):

Yesterday my Tour came crashing down around me, literally! I was going pretty well in the first really big mountain stage of this year’s race when, 53km from the finish at Tignes, I came off in style. Needless to say it is a massive disappointment. I could see the yellow, I could taste it – now it’s gone. It’s bad luck, but I’ll be back. I’m now writing to you from Italy where I am having treatment for a dislocated shoulder.
