Aussie Aussie Aussie! Oui Oui Oui!

I can't believe this! Not only is Brad McGee still in the yellow, but his team-mate and fellow Aussie, Baden Cooke, has won the most recent stage! He also has the best young rider (white) jersey, this being only his second Tour. I remember last year Eric Zabel, veteran German sprinter, mentioning Baden was someone to look out for, and now he's proving it. This is so cool!

Damn, I wish I could download the video at work - I have to wait until they show it on SBS tonight instead.

So, okay. I know what the white and yellow jerseys are. What's the green one for?

Yona's already answered this, but not as a reply, so you might have missed it unless you have been keeping an eye on this thread.

Yellow - overall leader of the race.

Green - best sprinter. That is, fastest over the set sprints they have preiodically.

Polka-dot (red dots on white) - King of the Mountain. Best time on the mountain stages.

White - Best young rider (under 25)
