Can't say I am sorry! I might watch a few minutes when I'm flicking through channels but that's about it.

I love the Tour. Its a bit hard staying up to watch the stages, now that they are all live (well not 100% of each stage).
I think that cycling is hard for a lot of people to understand as the strategies and tactics can sometimes take an hour or two to unfold. What is the go with not having a Prologue this year? |

I MUST STOP MAKING STUPID POSTS! Yet I keep on making them. And I wonder why I get banned?

crashes can be pretty awesome, especially if they get back on and finish the stage with a broken colar bone or the likes.

Well Cadel is winning at the moment, and Ricardo Ricco is out for testing positive to a banned substance. Now his whole team has pulled out as well!! Nothing suss there at all!
I would much prefer to watch a bit of downhill mountain biking, but the guys that ride the tour are pretty amazing athletes, and thir bikes are probably worth more than most peoples car's on here! Maybe except Rupe, cause he's spent way too much on the hardtop.
