Tell her it is only 4 hours every morning or 3 hours each evening, depending upon when you watch. That is not TOO much time, is it?

I figured I could count on you and Snack to join me!

Oddly....I'm loving this (totally unexpected).

I'm as glued to the tv as Snack is!

Oh My Giddy Aunt!!

The first ever Brit one, two in tour history.

What an awesome ride by Wiggo and Frome in the TT. To be fair Evans rode brilliantly too, just not quite well enough.

GO TEAM SKY!

It's quite addictive, isn't it? It is exciting to turn it on each day. I look forward to it all day.

Hey there! I haven't been around on this thread because I think of it when I get home from work, prior to watching the primetime version. I often don't turn on the TV until 10 minutes after the show has started. That way, I don't know who won the stage that day and can be surprised. Subsequently, I stay away from the thread, just in case someone has talked about a stage! I always mean to check the thread in the morning, but always forget.

I knew you would be excited about Brad this year, Incubus! Congrats to your country!

I was impressed with Jens Voigt yesterday, he did a hell of a job riding across the gap.

Not bad for being the oldest rider in the tour!

I agree! He takes risks many riders don't. 40 is certainly not young for the Tour!

Exactly! In fact, he will be 41 in September.

RadioShack/Nissan has been impressive thus far considering Andy Schleck is not racing!!
