Says he is looking to finish the tour now before joining training camp for Olympics. Looking for a hat trick now after today.

Plus we have our own Mark Cavandish winning his 2nd stage today. Even though he is a Manxman. Whoop whoop!!! Fastest man on the planet

Its the riders and pillions filming that amazes me, you need some skill to keep up on the downhill hairpins, with the bloke on the back standing up filming, and not hitting any spectators or riders!

And apparently Ricco has a crystal ball hidden somewhere. Wasn't he predicting Piepoli's victory today?

I believe he was, hes going to be somebody to watch in. I dont think we've seen the last of him yet either. He was pretty awesome in the Giro to.

I was watching Le tour on ITV4, Phil Ligget said Ricco is such a massive Pantani fan he carries a picture of him in his race jersey.

Yup, and he's not just another loud mouth, he really does what he says (even though he's a bit too "aggressive" sometimes).
