Tour of California

I didn't think to go on the Amgen site. I see it is on now with sunny skies.

No I understand the weather, it is the cutting out to start a hockey game that stinks.

Is it bad if I leave the kiddo at daycare an extra 15-20 minutes tonight so I can watch ToC? I did bring her in 20 minutes later than normal this morning . . .

Hey there! I am lurking everywhere! He he he he

I may unfortunately have to give up on the Amgen coverage. The site just froze my computer for the second day in a row. Shame, I really like having the video feed right next to live coverage. Edit: Problem solved. I remote-connected to another computer in the office that's not being used and pulled the site up there. Where there's a will, there's a way

limewave, it's only bad if your child grows up to hate cycling because of being left at daycare

. . . she never needs to know.

[Aggie_Ama]

Only if she hates daycare.

Try cycling tv - at least they show the whole thing! Usually they have no or very few interruptions, unless there is a problem with the weather like the other day. The only downside of ctv is that it's live streaming video on the web, so it's supposed to be watched on a computer. BUT - you can always connect the computer to your tv to see the race on a larger screen

It ran over again today, but Versus covered the entire thing. Yay!

[Aint Doody]

Yes! They showed the finish. How exciting. I find myself getting all up and leaning forward at the finish. Hurray for VS today!

OMG I'm gonna cry! My baby was supposed to win! He worked soooo hard! I caved and put it on a computer at the store because I couldn't handle it!!! Some inconsiderate customer had the nerve to want to buy things and I missed the end! Ugh, most courageous jersey boo!!! Stage win, it was supposed to be a stage win!

Alex the owner of the store we merged with was laughing at me! I was swooning, cheering, screaming, jumping up and down in full fan girl bloom. She said I looked like I was about to, um, eh hem, have a rather happy time. What? If I was born in the 50s back when girls swooned so bad they squealed and passed out at concerts I'm sure I would have. Being a product of the 80s this is my makeup for missing out on that.

*sigh* He used to shop at our store but has gone MIA. Hope that doesn't mean he didn't keep his puppies, or that he's not cheating on us at another store.

He needs a cooler kit. Brighter blue or something, looks too much like the rest of the team. Fire Michael Ball from designing the national champion, we had such high hopes for the kit! We were laughing at Phil and Paul commenting on it.

Nice of Tyler to share coke with the boys on climb #2. The Belgian didn't want any but I guess Jason needed a shot of Caffeine.

At least I could understand Cavendish today, normally I want subtitles for him and he is speaking English! When it came to a sprint I wanted Thor to SMASH again.

I love Freire, such a chipper little man and now out. And Kirchen he just looks nice, that was a big bummer. At least it wasn't big George.

+1

I get back from lunch at 2 and with my work pretty much done for the day I enjoyed watching the Amgen coverage on my computer until 3:30 when I leave for home then resume watching it on tv.

I also caught the ladies race the other day. Despite the coverage mishaps, I am still finding the ATOC very exciting!!!!

Well, I ended up picking DD up from daycare on time. But, surprisingly, she watched ToC with me between playing. She kept pointing at the screen exclaiming proudly, "I do that. And I run too." That's my girl!

I'm so happy VS showed the finish!!!!
