    If you go to the official site (www.amgentourofcalifornia.com) they have live tracking. You can watch it on a map, watch live video, or listen to live audio. YOu might still be able to get away with the live audio at work I think that versus will have video highlights on their web site after the broadcast too.

    Good luck getting your fix :-)

    Great pic of DZ, SK! WOW!

    We are going on Wednesday to the finish. Apparently they have (at all the finishes) a big screen where you can watch the entire race and then see the finish. So we're going to take Jonathan, as he wants to try to get autographs. I told him it was unlikely, but we'll try.

    We can take the lightrail downtown from near our house, so it shouldn't be too bad getting down there. Some of our friends from France are in town right now, and they're going to come, too.

    Do the riders hang out at their team's tents after the finish?

    I hate you. (naw, not really -- just jealous out of my mind!!)

    Great pics, gals...keep 'em coming. I'll be at Sacramento for the finish tomorrow. I'll try to get some of my own & post them.

    Old technology for an old person (me).

    We can't even get cable where I live! I want us to switch satellite companies just so we can get a DVR.

    Wonder why VS. had an hour of commentary instead of showing the riders? I don't think I saw a bit of footage on Jason Donald who led most of the way in the prologue.

    They had cameras on the well-known riders, and the riders who were expected to do well. Jason Donald surprised everyone.
