Tour de France

Anyone been watching? I'm not a major fan but I usually catch clips from the race every year. Right now they're about halfway through and it's not really a close race at all. It's pretty interesting to watch but I'm certainly not all that enthralled.

Today was my favorite day of the race, as they went to Marseilles, France. I popped a boner when they showed the Château d'If and I identified it before the announcers. I get penial rigormortis when I see anything that references "The Count of Monte Cristo" by Alexandre Dumas. *wood*

I'm not a big cycling fan but I like to keep tabs with what's going on in the Tour de France, it's a great event every year.

I think quite the opposite though, this year's race is very open due to there being no Lance Armstrong or a similar dominant force. Similar to last year's being pretty close and topsy-turvy all the way (before the drug scandal sadly surfaced once again).
