How about a new thread for this year?
A race worth watching.
A soap opera waiting to unfold.
Quips (and goofs) from the guys behind the microphones.
Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

Exciting finish today.
Glad to say that DH's solution to watching the Tour without cable has worked.

Got a subscription for the Tour from ITunes. We bought an Apple TV device, so we can "project" it from the I Pad to the TV. This was my ultimatum for giving up cable (as well as being to watch HGTV, because I'm addicted to several of their shows).

I am very curious. Is it the NBC app? Does it have a video archive, so you can watch the stage whenever you have time?
Muirenn -- for live coverage, this site is fantastic:

How is the app for Apple products? We bought the package for the computer last year and haven't decided what to do- we're on vacation and traveling now, so we can watch in real time on tv or online with Steephill TV, but once we get home and go back to work, we need a delayed option and aren't sure whether to go with the mobile app or getting the computer package from NBC..

I used the mobile app (NBC TDF All Access) last year and it worked great. you could watch live or on demand. It gives you a menu of all the completed stages to date, and you can choose whichever one you want to watch, whenever you want.
This year I bought the online package so I could watch on my bigger Mac screen and that's working well too. But to be honest, I forgot that could stream from my iPad to Apple TV and see it on an actual TV screen - I should've stuck with the app, it's much cheaper!

What happened to Phil and Paul and the predictions in the pre-race show this year? Bah humbug NBC!
Those predictions were my favorite part...watching the recap show now so perhaps they still have them in the early morning, but I doubt it. We're two hours behind EDT in Belize so I will have to watch in the evenings.

I miss Gogo. . Who is the new guy?? He is not as good of a commentator.

Do any of you know of a good guide explaining how the whole race works? I admit that I don't understand any of it but would love to be able to follow along more knowledgably.
