If you tuned in early for the Spanish TV coverage then you saw some amazing scenery as the peloton traversed two category 2 climbs while entering the Cantabria region of northern Spain		share this photo
This area is reminiscent of the nearby Pyrénées. Graham Watson took the best shot of the day (click the thumbnail left and follow the road around the photo)		share this photo
How quickly the race can change. Igor Anton looked great here and on every mountain stage so far, but in the blink of an eye his race was over. Shortly after this photo was taken he hit something on the road and lost his bars at 70-80 kph before the final climb. He was covered in road rash and abandoned with a broken elbow. His classy post race reaction and this is heartbreaking.		share this photo

He's not going to win the race at this pace, but Garmin's Tom Danielson was solid again today finishing 10th (+ 1' 29") and moves up to 8th overall due to a crash involving previous top 10 riders Anton, Uran and Bruseghin		share this photo
