    Marianne Vos (@marianne_vos) tweeted a nice quote today:

    Thinking back on #TdF this quote of Churchill comes up: 'Success is not final, failure not fatal; it's the courage to continue that counts'.

    I literally laughed out loud at the cut-out of Zabriske. For some reason I thought that was really funny - and sweet.

    I am having Tour withdrawals. I don't know what I am going to do with myself.

    I know! I couldn't believe work actually started so early.

    I get to see at least 2 stages of the USPRO in person. That's really a long time from now though.

    One more post TdF indulgence link: pictures from The Atlantic In Focus feature. Some unusual shots, like Sammy Sanchez shoe next to an award presenter's one.
