How do you celebrate TDF time?

Maybe today I'll party with this guy?

For all you non-Lance lovers just be glad you don't live in Austin! Our local paper writes an article a day about him but didn't cover the Tour when he retired. Please tell me what other Americans are doing. Tell me what interesting pros are doing, just don't think I want to hear about Lance all day. Oh and it just gives the non-cyclist in Austin a place to blog about how anyone who rides here is a Lance wannabe. Luckily, I spend the summer mountain biking and can avoid the hateful motorists around here. Maybe it isn't Lance but the hot weather making them so cranky?

In our house we DVR the live coverage and then watch together. We try to challenge each other to pick the stage winner, we're rarely right. I love to hear Paul's history insights and Phil's quirky comments. I can't listen to Craig Hummer so we don't watch the night time coverage. Versus has some flaws but I am glad they cover cycling some. I miss when they used to show more, including mountain biking!

OMG Possegirl!
We watched the prologue on dvr after I got off work & drank Dutch beer!

PS: for those without TV/Cable, I'm loving the coverage via the Versus Tour Tracker. It's $30 for desktop&webphone access and $15 for the iphone app. LIVE streaming coverage sans commercials and for me so far it's worked *great*. I can finally stop complaining about my cable company and their crrrazy pricing structures and packages!

Today maybe I'll party with these guys (that's Horner bringing up the back of the peloton.)

I don't know who this guy is, but what I do know is that he rides for Euskatel Euskadi, and he signs autographs for people, even in his underwear.
