It's that time of year again.
Although it's a tainted sport i still find the spectacle enthralling.
3 weeks of late nights - at least it's a way to kill the windless days.

All sport is tainted isn't it? Well maybe not sailing....

I tape it and watch in 2x speed the next day/evening

That finish was great last night. Bakelants had the bunch baring down on him like a stampede for kilometers and pulled off the win by 1 second. His first stage win in 5 years as a pro. He's a happy boy.

Well done Simon Gerrans and Orica Green Edge.
1st stage win for an australian team.

An Aussie in yellow.. and it's not Cadel.. wow.

TDF - Ah the memories.

The other night they road past bar I had a drink at

All the whisky ads are taking their toll on my bar.

I just watch it for the crashes.

Great night of strategic riding, blew the field open. Great to see Cadel still do pretty well without any of his team left to support him, last climb was the killer.

Hope the rest of the stages don't end up being boring now as they protect the lead like last year.

Froome rode like a demon last night as well. Out on his own with movistar baiting him up a mountain.
Hope he isnt on drugs will taint the whole team and wiggo from last year.

Awesome Vid

Stage 14 could well be another one that suits OGE if Sagan doesn't spoil it.
Hopefully Matt Goss might find some sprinting form this week. Tassie boys are doing pretty well and local girl Amy Cure just won the Czech Tour de Feminin for the Jayco AIS squad.

Stage 15 wow! I thought Quintana had it in the bag. He just plugs away up the Ventoux as steady as can be, as if hes taking a stroll, absolutely cool and unperturbed leaving the dripping gasping nodding and dying behind. Then Froome pops out from behind Porte spinning like the Road Runner and in just a few minutes he's across the gap. He's amazing, all legs and lungs. Then he rode away from Quintana to win again just like he did last year in the mountains before Wiggo put his foot down.

Barring accident he's a shoe shoo in.
