Tour de France: Tommy D answers the call in the climb into the Pyrénées
After the stage, VeloNews veteran reporter John Wilcockson caught up with Tommy D. Here’s part of his interview, and you can read the whole thing at VeloNews.com: Danielson has finished top 10 at the Vuelta — seventh in 2005, sixth in 2006 and ninth in 2010 — but those placings never earned him a Tour slot until now. Asked how the two grand tours compared, he said, “I don’t know. I think I’m in better shape here so I’m actually suffering less here than I was at the Vuelta. But I guess it’s harder. It’s definitely faster and there’s a lot more attention on it. There were a lot more people (on today’s stage). I was having trouble seeing where I was going with all the flashes and stuff. So that was pretty cool. A lot of fun.”
