The start of Le Tour is just hours away and I am already on the edge with anticipation. No matter the outcome, I guarantee that it is going to be an epic battle. Far more dramatic and compelling than any over-hyped “reality show” could force feed viewers.

Kudos to the Outdoor Live Network (OLN-TV) for their live unabridged coverage. I or my STeVo will be there from Liege to the Champs-Elysées in Paris!

Also, for anyone even remotely interested in The Tour you simply must check out Frank Steele’s Tour de France Blog, which I believe is his third year blogging Le Tour.

I’ve been subscribed to Frank’s feed for over a year and I feel like I’ve been kept up-to-date on the entire cycling season. Thanks Frank!
