Great TdF Article

Found this courtesy of hoodooguru's post over on the Road forum:

https://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2...e=caple/070706

It's a great read not only about the Tour, but about bicycling in America in general. An especially great quote at the end:

Who is more patriotic, the person who commutes to work on a bike, or the guy who slaps a U.S. flag decal on his SUV that gets 12 miles per gallon?

One teensy, weensy criticism. They won't be riding though the Chunnel - those railway sleepers would make for a bumpy ride
