Stage 15 of the Tour de France wound its way through our region this afternoon for an uphill finish in Verbier, the first time a stage has ended in Switzerland for 25 years. GstaadLife.com was on hand for the carnival-like atmosphere in Les Moulins, about 17km from Gstaad in the direction of Bulle. Today's stage turned out to be a critical one in race terms, with the big guns of Team Astana, Alberto Contador (who went on to win the stage) and Lance Armstrong, making their moves up the Col des Mosses, down to Aigle, and up to Verbier to claim the yellow jersey and second place overall. The finish is in Paris a week from now.
