    TOUR DE FRANCE 2011

    love watching the tour every year,anybody else been watching ?
    im not a cyclist myself,well not a serious one but always like to watch the race as it passes through all the different towns and citys, and mountains,
    obviously with a few good homegrown riders on the tour it makes it more interesting,,,,anyway who else has been watching ???????

            Its been a great tour with fantastic racing nearly every stage..
            I'm glad Evans has won, he's been knockin on the door for years but had some really bad luck in the past. The Vuelta should be interesting too if Wiggins can hold any kind of form.
            I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I do not know the answer.

              Cable what annoys me about the athletes who participate in the tour is they never get any credit for their fitness level, amount of training they have to do or their dedication to their sport. Look at these so called athletes like rooney etc who grace the premiership- They could not live with these guys on the tour when it comes to fitness yet they think they are athletes. It just makes you laugh. These guys are cycling up to 100 miles a day for a month and i take my hat off to them.
