I was in London for the Opening Ceremony and men's race. It was exhilarating to watch the guys zoom by, but that's all I saw--twice, about 15 seconds! Saw much more of the BMW team cars than the racers. Loved the fans' spirit, literally cheering for everyone, but I'll take the TV anytime. Being in a hotel, I didn't have the opportunity for playback. I'll remember this when I get the bug to be a spectator at the TdF!
