I'm set. I watched stage 17 live all the way through, and Ventoux should be worth watching as well. Its surprising how much you just miss out on in the condensed versions.

Don't need an alarm clock, the wife is ALWAYS awake for the start of EVERY stage for the TdF. She's kind of fanatical like that.

I've been up for every stage. I've got a 7 month old baby. She usually has me up just about after the start of versus coverage. Usually they end before I have to be off to work. Glad tomorrow is Saturday.
