Egad!... Le Tour is on again soon, the coverage usually begins here at about 10.00pm and finishes about 2.30am, and I'm an addict, I wonder if I can catch up on sleep at work, they might not even notice, hmmm.
Just love that French countryside with the aerial shots of the rustic villages, chateaux etc. and all the race drama as well.

Sorry I'm back at work today after two weeks holiday,(during which I turned 60) and so no more late nights on the web, thus sometimes 14-16 hours between replys. (You guys keep funny hours)
Had to do a little search to refresh my memory.

As usual, there are apparently more drug allegations, I suspect some are spread by opposition teams. If Floyd Landis looses the defence of his drugs case then Oscar will be last years champ, and will start in yellow, but he is threatening to withdraw now (seems to be having a little dummy spit over supplying DNA) and so it goes on.
