"That left Tour promoter Chris Aronhalt with an uneasy feeling as the countdown to race start neared and he was still missing nearly half the $2.3 million he needed to put on the event.
He said last week that his for-profit company had the resources to pull off the event, but that his company would reap the profit, or the debt, that resulted.
If no major donor stepped forward, he said, the race might not continue next year."

Here is a different slant on the story.

I think the TdG will be here for years to come and will become more and more popular each year.
I'll be in Macon tomorrow as a volunteer for the Komen Women's Crit and for the TdG finish.
Friday I'll be riding my bike up Brasstown Bald to watch the race. Saturday I'll be at the stage start and Sunday I'll be in Atlanta for the final stage circuit race.
