I know im in a minority here in in America (8 years in a row...). but, unlike what some peopel think, I watch it for mostly foreign riders like Thor Hushovd and Robbie McEwen.

I used to, when I was still a student.

Sadly, I can only watch during the week-ends nowadays.

During the week, I have to work. By the time I come home, they already arrived.

My favorite étappes are/were those in the Alps or the Pyrenees: live coverage from start til finish, beautiful landscapes and always exciting, sometimes heroic
