Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I pay $30 for the on demand tour replays, and they manage to stream in **** quality half the time when I can stream 1080p on youtube instantly. Then I have to watch an ad every blasted time I click in. No wonder I used steephill for the giro.

I paid $15 for the NBC mobile iPad TdF app and its been perfect. No commercials, replays when I want them, etc. If you bought it now, it would still be less than $1/day.

How can I make this political?

Yeah, you don't see Fox News with a TdF mobile app now, do you? They don't even know where France is.

Here's a screen capture from today:

I'm surprised they don't edit it to make it look like someone else wins.
