The Tour starts today, yay!!!! I’m totally jazzed. Here’s a very useful guide from Wired to various ways to follow the Tour online. And even more cool, it’s a wiki, so if you know of some other sources they are missing, log in and add ’em!
This year I’m cheering all-American — Christian Vande Velde, Team Garmin-Slipstream, Levi Leipheimer (riding for Team Astana), George Hincapie, Team Columbia-High Road in particular. Dave Zabriskie in the time trials, of course. Oh yeah, and there’s that Lance guy …
My favorite stages are the ones where the sprinters have the advantage (I’m a fast twitch girl at heart), and this year my favorite sprinter, Aussie Robbie McEwen, is out because of rehab from a broken tibia (ouch).
Time to get in the saddle …
