Because the crash happened in the final three kilometers of the stage, all riders were given the same time as the winners, per international cycling rules. So there was little change to the overall standings. Prologue-winner Fabian Cancellara, who went replica Tag Heuer cag2110.fc6209 watch down in the pileup, will stay in yellow, though he appeared to be injured as he crossed the finish line cradling his left arm. Pre-race favorite Alexandre Vinokourov, who crossed himself as he rolled through the finish, looked unscathed. No word yet on whether any other race favorites were involved in the crash, or what the injury report might be.—John Bradley(Photo by Beth Schneider)

Just four days ago, I picked Tom Boonen as my favorite for the green sprinters jersey and named Aussie Robbie McEwen, a three-time winner of the green jersey, as his main challenger. After just one stage of the 2007 Tour, it looks as if I grossly replica Tag Heuer ww2110.fc6177 watch underestimated McEwen. His incredible win from a bunch sprint on Stage 1 showed him to be by far the class of the sprinters this year, to the point that talk of who his main challengers for green might be seems a waste of time. McEwan simply crushed Boonen, Norwegian strong man Thor Hushovd, and the rest of the worlds best sprinters at the end of the 126-mile stage from London to Canterbury, England.

McEwans win was made all the more dramatic for the fact that the 35-year-old, who rides for the Belgian Predictor Lotto team, was caught up in a crash at the back of the field, about 12 miles from the finish. He fell hard on his hand and leg and then had to replica Tag Heuer cs111g.fc6199 watch helplessly as the peloton rode away while he was stuck behind a jumble of cars, bikes, and riders that blocked the road. While his sprint rivals sat tucked in behind their teammates in the peloton, McEwen, with the help of four teammates, rode furiously to rejoin the group. Weaving in and out of the team cars on the road ahead, he managed to get back to the peloton and then, more surprisingly, to work his way up through the 188-man field that was riding shoulder to shoulder on the narrow road into Canterbury.
