READY TO SEE SOME RACING!!
I've been down and out the last day with some sort of stomach bug thats just now finally getting cleared out and while I'd love to watch coverage all day I really should get some school work done. Doesn't mean I won't be sneaking some peaks at the updates through the day. Anyone know when the race starts in Cali? It's still only a little after 9am out there now.

the live video works fine for me.
not sure if there's supposed to be audio or not, but i'm not getting any.
it didn't load on Safari, but it's working fine on Firefox.
make sure you have the adobe flash player, i didn't have it installed on my mac last night.

I saw that they are playing the stages in the evening on the VSHD. The race isn't being filmed in HD is it? ...that would be sweet.

Too bad they (VS) couldn't even get the spelling correct on Zabriskie when he started! Also interesting that it is really not "live." Right now they have Z riding and he finished some time ago.

They were just showing Jullich's elliptical chainring, I have never seen anything like that. Anyone here use one?

Do a forum search for "biopace" 
As for Jason Donald... I think I heard him say "timekeeping is for wussy!"

My wife just rolls her eyes at me. Of course I have all the TV's on vs. so I can watch while I chase the kids around the house.
