Le Tour De France
Anyone watching? With all the doped cyclists out, it's great to see these guys doing this INSANE tour....
Here's the video I'm watching:

Yes! other tour nerds.
my avatar will win this year!!! (Cadel Evans)
The stage to Le Alpe Du Huez is the one to watch if you dont watch any others. 21 Swithchback turns - ouch!

The climbs have been disgusting! Unreal.... I have nothing but admiration, especially with all the doping cleaning house they are doing. Today was pretty cool, really got into Friday's stage.

YAY! Cadel is in Yellow!

I really don't know the riders too well, but it's still a blast to watch. I'm in awe.

Yeah it takes a while to learn all the names - especially the spanish guys who have like 6 of them each.

Ricardo Ricco tests positive for EPO and the whole Saunier Duval squad is out of the tour...
Ouch.
Been enjoying the clean tour, but I guess it ain't so clean after all.

The company I work for, Camelbak, sponsored team Suanier Duvall with our new Podium Bottles. There was a press release back in January with a picture of Ricardo Ricco using one of our bottles.

fuck that, you'll never who's messin' with the stuff. I understand the why, it's 3,000 kilometers!! But people have done it in the past with all the fancy bikes and science based work outs, you'd think they'd need it less these days.
Hope Camelbak gets some of there moneybak!

Meh i love my camelbak and i know many many other people who use and love them. lift that head back up and cheer up emo kid - its all good. Riccardo ricco will never ride the tour again and will be shamed wherever he goes for the rest of his life. good riddance i say.
Start cheering for Cadel Evans - its widely rumored amongst the cycling community that when he was on T-mobile team he didn't get to ride the tour cause he wouldn't use EPO. There are clean riders out there.
