The Olympics will be lucky (certainly the GB football team) to get the same kind if excitement going at the minute. Roamer, you've picked the wrong time to be out of the country as the TdF is getting proper mainstream exposure over here right now.

Not a sport I Normally follow but even I was crowding over the shoulder of a mate in work to watch Cav's sprint today - despite the fact that we're actually up against proper opposition in the cricket right now for the first time in a while.

TdF fever in the UK at the moment. Enjoy it mate as you've been following it for years and for once it's more important than anything else as far as the press is concerned.
