TdF: Vansevenant Clings to Last

After the Stage today, 170th placer, Wim Vansevenant continues to cling to last place, 1 hr-25'-48" behind the leaders and less than two minutes slower than challenger Matthieu Sprick. Our boy is going to have a hard day tomorrow in the mountains, as the real race finally begins. He will be expected to push hard up the lower slopes in team support. Let us hope he still has his legs and doesn't fall off the back too far and face elimination.
