Stage 12: Castelsarrasin - La Mongie
Left the Col d'Aspin early this morning opting for a chance to regroup and get up to Plateau de Beille early and have a decent spot. I did get a few shots of the breakaway group and the main group with Lance Armstrong as they passed through Lannemezan. So that worked out and the thunder and lighting storms hit hard the second they went by. The people up on La Mongie and Col d'Aspin must have gotten soaked. And I can't even image what the traffic was like getting back those spots.
Results:
Stage 12:
1 Ivan Basso (Team CSC)
2 Lance Armstrong (US Postal)
3 Andreas Klöden (T-Mobile)
General Classification:
1 Thomas Voeckler (Brioches La Boulangère)

3 Sandy Casar (Fdjeux.com)
