A favorite time of year for me… Kind of interesting without Lance -still a lot of excitement for me. Yahoo has flash updates and live coverage so you can follow the riders as they progress through the stage.



This guy – George Hincapie, I think, can win. He’s in 4^th overall right now – 17 seconds behind. It’s so early in the Tour. Almost anything is possible.
I love watching these guys race. There’s just so much heart in the Tour de France. There’s the team aspect, the country aspect and the individual aspect. I spent a couple of years “going Postal”. Now Discovery, with the Lance Armstrong legacy, is doing very well.

Paolo Salvodelli is in 7^th overall, just 27 seconds back, Yaroslav Popovych is in 22nd place, José Acevedo is in 27^th place, José Rubiera is in 46^th place which is only 57 seconds behind the leader.

Floyd Landis could do it too… he’s an American riding for Phonak. He’s in 8^th overall.



Levi Leipheimer is an American riding for Gerolsteiner and he’s in 25^th place.

These guys were both members of Postal and rode with Lance.
It’s still early… and it’s so exciting.
