One thing that I find interesting is how much time the big names spend on their phones. At first I thought they were just hitting Twitter, texting, or playing games. While this is true for the younger and less know riders, the big guys are doing business.
I have overheard phone calls from Levi, Cadel, Hincapie and others where they are talking with their managers and handlers, arranging sponsorships, organizing charity events, talking contracts, and working on their other business such as clothing, shoes, and more.
Cadel just dropped out. He has looked tired all week, especially last night and this morning. My guess is he is beat up after a long season, combined with his new adopted child and, of course, his extra-curricular business that keeps him on his phone.
