Anyone into cycling here?

I just love the tactics/drama/emotion of a great cycling race. And I am in love with the tour de france, I've been watching it since I was about 6.

I think its gonna be a great tour this year, loving the return of contrador, hes got some serious potential, although am I the only one who thinks it's sad to see lance back and in poor form?

Hi,
Nice with someone who like to sit infront of the tv for severals hours. My wife can´t get it.
When our swedish guy took the pink in the Giro I jumped and shouted!

Don´t know what Lance is thinking of. Maybe he has more to give then we know?

ha, I never go in for the epic multi hour watching, thats just too much for me, but an hour or so of highlights does me fine.

Lövkvist is looking pretty good, and on the old Uk front mark cavendish continues to do well, although i find it hard to support him due to every time he is interviewed he seems like a total ****.

Lances comeback is just a huge error, he reitred at the right time, leaving a legacy as one of the greatest, his comeback can achieve nothing except to drag all hte old doping stuff back out, and to diminish him and his achievements. His 7 wins were epic, and now he is probably third rider in the team. He is not terrible (and that is testement to how good he was), but he can no way win, I mean, Contrador has got to be feeling pretty confidant for this year.

Now the Tour de France is on its way and it promises to be one of the best and competitive Tours ever.The duel between Lance and Contador,the underdogs Cadel Evans,Carlos Sastre,Menchov,the brother's Schleck,even Kreuziger...I just love this race,the thrill,everything.Let the best man win!Jekata out!

I looove cycling, I bike around 10 miles a week average
most i ever did in a day was about 100 miles

Armstrong only 0.22 seconds from the 'mellow johnny'.

Gives us older cyclists some hope!

The Tour is getting closer and closer to the Alps,where the yellow jersey will be decided.The sunday's stage will give us a clearer view of that.I have to go now and bike some km.I hope this discussion will be more active in the future.See you guys!Jekata out!

Contador is the new 'superman' of the slopes.

Pantani would have given him a good battle, but I'm afraid Lance just doesn't have that 'high end' any more.

With Mont Ventoux on Saturday, the GC still we be sorted out.

I am watching the Mont Ventoux stage live at this very moment and it's truly amazing.The Schleck brothers,Contador and Lance are having a hell of a battle 2-3km from the top.Now it's up to the pure willpower.But I think Lance will keep his 3-rd place in the GC.Lance did finish with Andy and Contador at the top of the legendary Mont Ventoux and had shown,that he is a great champion.That's all I can say!Jekata out!
