That One Race in France

I admit I have not watched a single second of “The” tour coverage on TV. Mostly because I don’t have cable. About the only thing dumber than paying for TV is paying for radio, but I digress. OK so no TV but I have been following it online (I can’t help myself). Yesterday was the first mountain stage so I thought there might finally be some racing, a chance for the real contenders to show themselves. Well I was wrong. With a Cat 1 climb at the end there should have been some fireworks, but no all the “favorites” rode like it was an AIDS Ride or something. Pussies. So far the best thing about this tour is the Zabriskie Diaries on Velonews. That is some great stuff there. BTW if you want to hear some bad Euro techno (is there any other kind?) here is the Tom Boonen song Dave was talking about the other day. Tommeke Tommeke Tommeke! I think Cheryl Crow wrote a song about Lance before he dumped her for Matthew Mcconaughey.

that must be why you get such good content. all you need now is a laptop that gives lappers! dave is killing it. is the interviewer for real? or is velonews branching into comedy?

I heard rumors about the Tom song, thanks for posting it, too funny! Is this the kind of music Sly has on his headphones?
