oh Margo, you crack me up!
My "boys" are the same age as the boys on the Tour, and I don't call them boys anymore. They wouldn't like it. They're my lovely, mature, handsome men.

Calling them "boys" makes me feel like a perv for the things I imagine about them...
they're definitely MEN 
There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

I believe "boys" is used to convey comraderie (sp?). I heard one of the riders refer to the peleton as "the boys". They are all suffering and living through a difficult experience together.
After watching the TdF, I also believe men should be forced to obtain a license before wearing Speedo-type swimsuits. blech!Life is like riding a bicycle. To stay balanced, one must keep moving. - Albert Einstein

Well in this mornings coverage there was a completely naked guy--no "mini, mini, mankini". Not as evenly tanned as the other guy though.

No, but of course it was during a climb.
