    Life is good my friend, I may be approaching the top of the bell curve. But who knows, the whole thing could fall out from under me.
    And you?

    One of the most gnarliest events out there.

    Although I'm more into watching the terrain than the actual cycling part myself. One of the only sports where scandal has affected how I look at it. :o

    Looking forward to 3 solid weeks of late nights. Hopefully there isn't a scandal like last year.
    I only lied because it was the easiest way to get what I wanted.

    Love the Tour De France even the negative stuff. Now I really treasure the years with Lance. maybe some time before an American dominates again. The French now need a dominate rider to bring even more prestige to the this classic race.

    VIVE LE TOUR!!!

    I wish Levi were ridding...

    ...but I love the event...I love Liggett ("The riders are dancing on their pedals")...I love getting up at 4:30 in the AM to watch...I love the guy in the Lucifer outfit...I love the creativity of the farmers who make crop formations in the shape of bicycles...I love the shear magnitude of the race...I love the Champs d'Elysees!! Je t'aime le tour!

    Next to the World Cup, the greatest three weeks in sports.

    OK somebody please tell what network is broadcasting the race this year? In the DC Metro the channel guide says Versus but I can't find it anywhere. I want to see it if I'm not online.
