    Apparently, he hit the deck as well.

    Didn't take Vaughters 15 seconds to hit teh Twitters to complain about TP getting towed back to the peloton.

    Jonathan Vaughters ‏ @Vaughters
    So I suppose now is a good moment to impose that "no help from the caravan" rule. Fair?

    He's riding back up to the front, though, in a train with his teammates. Kind of amazing.

    BTW, the NBC mothership will be showing today's stage at 2 p.m. Eastern, 11 a.m. God's time.

    T. Phinney, still in the pink, leads at the beginning of Stage 3.
