I’m a real geek when it comes to the tour, I love it. I’ve been watching it everyday as usual. It’s certainly been a high profile tour so far, and for once not just because of doping. In fact even Contador’s issues seem to have faded into the background with all the drama going on.
I am fortunate enough to be going to watch the finish of this year’s tour on the Champs Elysee. I’m really excited about this and think it will be a great motivator during the tougher parts of our ride to think of how those guys suffer over the three weeks.
If Cavendish can hold on to green into Paris and cross the finish line in front of us, well I will always be able to say that I was there to watch it!
