We just bought a Specialized today for eldest daughter. It had a "WOW" sale sticker on it.

I loved the coverage, but like many, recorded the morning broadcast and watched sans commercials leter in the day. Once or twice I had technical difficulties and had to watch the end of the evening broadcast, and much prefer Paul and Phil. Even both daughters (12 and 21) watched a good bit of the races with me. Both commented that we need to take a vacation to France.

I haven't been able to watch since the early '90s when UScoverage moved from EPSN (I think) to OLN. We just got digital HD this last fall, which included VS. I didn't realize it was on VS until just a day before hte race started. I was ecstatic to find that I'd again get to watch, and wasn't disappointed.
