Le Tour est fini....

[jeannierides]

It was so weird this morning not to have the TV on.

I'll miss it too, even with all the controversy. Before the Tour, I hardly ever even turned my TV on during the morning, but with the Tour, I found myself getting up early just so I could see the guys' picks. Then watch it again in the evening with my SO.
Now, I'll be able to watch all the shows I kept recording on my dvr, and not having time to watch...

I too will be sad that it's over. I got home from work lastnight to watch the final stage which had another showing at midnight on vs., as it did all during the tour. so, I made if til about 1235 and i fell asleep. I have an idea who won, hubby wanted to break it to me tonight because he knew i fell asleep and didnt' see the ending. He will give me my tour highlights tonight. every night for almost 3 weeks, I had plans to be inside watching tv. (its summer out for gosh sakes and where do I wanna be? inside ). Now its back to being out enjoying the outdoors, bugs, flowers, and fresh air. ho-hum. until next year.

This is so funny reading all these posts and feeling the exact same way! I stopped and thought-wow I really got used to watching it every morning. Its like a great weekend has come to an end with your favorite people staying at your house and then sunday comes around and they all go home..its like youve been taken off a great drug! However not good for my checkbook!
cycling has grabbed me like no other hobby!
