    I like this:

    Wednesday's stage runs through the so-called "Circle of Death" along four brutal climbs — none more daunting than the 7,000-foot Tourmalet. On Thursday, the last summit finishes atop the 5,300-foot Peyragudes.

    Wiggins is talking a big game in his bid to become Britain's first Tour de France champion. He says Wednesday's stage "isn't any more difficult than any other stage we've done up to this stage, really."

    Wiggins said the Tourmalet was nothing special.

    "It goes uphill like all the others, doesn't it?" he said.
