Don D? Girl27? Bruco? King Rene?

I expected the 99ers to bail after the TDF, but not y'all.

Speak up!! :D

I'm here.... Actually, I think I pretty much abandoned during the Tour, no? Thanks for looking after things while we were gone. You have the patience of a saint. :)

Zurich's next weekend. We'll be seeing King Rene soon.

But where's Don? I need someone to laugh at my jokes.

I'm surprise OLN has bailed on cycling coverage since the Tour.

Yesterday I was able to catch the King of the Mountain (MTB) championships on the Yes Network (the Yankees station) though.

What happened to cycling on OLN? I can only was so much of that River dog show.

This board has been pretty dead as of late. Hopefully with Zurich and the Vuelta starting soon, things will liven up a bit.

I'm new to cycling and am not interested in racing for myself (squash is where I get my competition), but find racing interesting to follow.

...back to lurking...

I'll be back for TDF 2005
Well, as long as Lance is there.

(a more honest explanation would be that I've been busy. It's not only the French that take July as vacation!)

I'm not even an 89'er, I'm more like an 84'er

I'd have to go with about an 86'er, here.

I'm still here, haven't posted much anywhere for the past week or
so due to work (don't you just hate that). I'm really in some
shell shock/mourning/denial after Only Lance Network
snubbed us all by replacing the Vuelta with Gun dogs and Xtreme challange
1998, or somesuch nonsense (18 day live coverage of the running of the bulls?
give me a break).
I only pray they leave the spring classic schedule alone (since they see it
as a run up to that big race in France.

Marty comfortably somewhere around 75

Ditto on the work and all...

Saw my first Tour in '75 but started racing in about 1970...saw Eddy race, live and in person. In Belgium no less.

I think the spring classic stuff is part of their contract with the Tour organizers...since that organization has jurisdiction over many of the one-dayers...
