Anyone else excited to watch this? Stage 1 starts tomorrow morning...
Excellent point! This could also be said for more than just athletes...My point being that these days if you choose to beat the system it has to be a concerted effort and a definite decision to cheat to win. I have no respect for athletes who "choose" that path.
Hopefully it wasn't today's stage... what chaos! I'm a fan of all the stages, but really enjoy the mountains.No! :mrgreen
Even if the Tour passes through my town this year (no joke!)
I think Chris Froome is going to win too. He is a monster climber and has the strongest team by far. Honestly, I think he could have won last year, but team politics kept that from happening. Other than Froome, a lot of "experts" are picking Alberto Contador. He looked pretty weak a few weeks back in the Criterium de Dauphine and lost a lot of time to guys like Froome and TJ Vangarderen. For some strange reason TJ Vangarderen is starting behind Cadel Evans again this year. TJ won the Tour of California earlier this year, so he's coming in in great form - I like his chances too.Love the Tour/Cycling. Hardest part is finding time to watch all of the live coverage.
Who are you picking for this year? Froome being the fav, anyone else float your boat?

Luckily no musician ever used anything...How could anyone in their right mind give a rat's ass about a bunch of drug addled bicyclers who have for DECADES participated in what is probably the crookedest sport of all time? These are not sport's hero's to be looked up to or adored, they are the scourge of modern day athletics, to be kept as far away as possible from our impressionable children. The French can take their silly ass bike race and shove it where the sun don't shine. IT'S TOTALLY MEANINGLESS.
They don't compete in a 'SPORT', nor do they ingratiate themselves with titles like 'world champion'. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other. :rollLuckily no musician ever used anything...![]()

You mean after they test and disqualify all the cheaters right?Let me know in ten years who actually won the race.
