TDF Rest Day

The 1st rest day of this years TDF has fallen on Monday 16 July 2007. After 8 days of racing you’d think it’s time for the gents to have a "Rest Day" spend an hour or two on the bike to get the legs turning over and then  a good rub down and put you’re feet up.

The following interviews with Jens And Cadel show that a rest day for a pro cyclinst in the TDF is not a rest day at all with Press and other commitments that see the day chewed up and not must time with the legs up doing nothing.
