Le Tour

So - has anyone been following the coverage on the Tour de France this year?
I've found the coverage this year (as seen on Versus HD) to be very interesting.
Has any one else been watching?

Occasionally. Try to check in to see how Lance is doing, but not seeing much coverage of him. How's he doing?

I pretty much watched the whole race. I used VS online feed as it had no commercials.

The race ended today and Lance came in third. Not bad at all for a 38 year old. He will be back next year to win it all though.

Since the winner was his teammate it was certainly in the realm of possibility for him to win this year if he'd been leading the team. That aspect was actually pretty interesting this year.

Watched every stage and thought it was a fantastic race. Lots of good subplots going on though it was clear that nobody was going to come close to Contador.

To call them amazing athletes and sportmen is truly an understatement.

I was only able to see some of the stages but I really enjoyed watching this year when I could.
