The Tour De France starts tomorrow and I am looking forward to it immensely.
ITV4 are showing the climax of every stage live and with a British team (Sky) and a record number of British riders there will be plenty to root for.
Bradley Wiggins for the general classification and Mark Cavendish (henceforth known as "The Mad Manxman") for the Green Jersey should put up a good show.
I could watch for hours and probably will.
I will try and bring updates of each stage on a daily basis.
The race starts with a Prologue of 8.9km around Rotterdam. This is a short time trial and will probably be won by a specialist like Wiggins or Fabian Cancellara. Do not rule out Alberto Contador the race favourite as he is no slouch at this discipline.
Who needs football!
