    Since the computer nazi's here at work don't let this computer download the stuff needed for Flash to work, I watch the live feed off of cycling.tv. I can't not watch the stages....reading the tickers just doesn't give it the excitement on the climbs!!!

    The Amgen Tour site has a live feed everyday from start to finish (for me, on the east coast, it's from 1pm til whenever). Its surprisingly ok satellite coverage.

    The only problem with it (no offense, Frankie) is TERRIBLE commentating. I mute it and listen to some music instead!



    I second the yee-haw regarding Dave Z in the break. He's considered one of the top contenders now.

    Duuuuh... I use those every year for the TdF. I dunno why I didn't think they'd do live reports for something like the ToC. Thanks, Lifesgreat. I'll also check out the Amgen site.

    I wasn't kidding that I'm out of touch this year

    Here on the East coast, we're getting this at 11 pm. Call me ancient, but I've been sleeping for about an hour by then .

    We're so out of touch, we actually had to figure out how to program our - wait for it - VCR! Yup - no DVR or Tivo here - just good old fashioned technology .

    I've seen the first three stages, and will watch yesterday's stage tonight.

    Please....I can barely turn on the bleepin' t.v. DH has so many remotes for the stupid thing.

    Did you see this pic of Dave Z. from yesterday? With the 'stache? He looks like an old man!!
    Still...I like the light in this series of Mitch's photos....

    Funny that you brought up Dave Z's upper lip. The mention of it at the beginning of this post is actually what reminded me that I needed to check out the Tour of Cali

    We are using the DVR to record it, but like Regina, I can barely use the TV now. Too many functions, etc.
    SheFly, we didn't have any of this stuff until we got Comcast phone service and the TV stuff was part of a package/upgrade. We supposedly are going to drop the On Demand, etc. when the "deal" runs out, but I somehow I don't think so!
