ok, i too didnt' get the reference to the tour, but i blame it on the fact that i was laughing so hard at bat's cat avatar - what a great looking kitty!

this is my goal, i'm hoping to do one next year. my goal used to be to do the 100 miles of the livestrong challenge in philly, but after my brother in law said it was seriously NOT FUN, due to the hills, i've decided to aim for the 70 mile ride on that next year and look to something a bit less, shall i say "lance-ish" for a century.
