radioless Bastille Day once more

ASO organizers decided to set le Tour de France up w/no communication for a couple stages this year leaving managers and racers not pleased. Regardless, the controversy didn't end in protest a few days ago and the French didn't get a win on their national holiday either.....hehe! Today was Friday the 13th(by stage # rather than calendar) and a breakaway succeeded which is what many like about this idea as it makes the event less predictable. Although, it does suck if you tire puncture at the back of the peloton and your team car is up the road.
