Hellooooo? Anyone watching the Tour?

Thor!!!!

Thor is awesome!

I'm rooting for a French win this year. I love the sport and I love the country, so I watch this year as I have since 1986. I'm so glad there are three days in Brittany, as it's my favorite part of France, and little known to folks in the U.S. (hint--go there and ride!). I was just there in May (again) with my bike and it's some of the best riding I've ever done.

Valverde has a good shot at the whole shebang, but he is moving out awfully early. But he has an amazing team so I wouldn't be surprised if he pulled it out at the end.

Thor SMASH!

I <3 the Tour, though I'm disappointed my fave (Boonen) did something idiotic and got himself barred from the race.

Basso..Mayo..Ulrich....are personal faves....not even sure they;re in this year..

Retired (Ullrich), without a team (Mayo), or serving suspensions (Basso) on various levels of doping violations/allegations.

I'm mad at Boonen.

The last 5K or so of today's stage was SO exciting. I was on the edge of my seat.

well..I better get on the stick!!! (maybe if I quit obsessing about my h'bars, I'd pay attention to something else...)

thanks, Hot Flash, for the link!

Hi
8.30 pm here in Britain now and Eurosport has an hours coverage every day from 9pm, so just time now to find a bottle of red and settle down infront of the telly.
For the first time for quite a while we have a bit of British interest to follow with Mark cavendish who won a couple of stages at the giro this year

watching the recap right now. Amazing how hard Versus is pushing the angle of this being a New Day (and also that they do it in all the other sports too ). They must've really lost a lot of viewership. Not sure how much the commentary and those little... what do they call those little segments?... not sure how much good they'll do since only people who've decided to watch the Tour will see them.
