Tour de France 2009: one week and one day away!

Let me just say that, although I will not be lucky enough to go and watch the Tour in France this year (unless something really amazing and unexpected happens), I am so excited to follow the race from my home in Boulder, CO! There are so many different types of coverage available that really, it's actually easier to follow what's going on from way over here than from the side of a windy mountain road in the Pyrenees. Still, I am jealous of those who will have the honor of straining to identify who's in the lead as the peloton comes pounding up the slopes of Tourmalet! Hopefully they'll post some sweet footage on YouTube and Facebook, and I'm sure we'll be getting some interesting race analysis from the power gurus here at TrainingPeaks, which I will be posting at blog.trainingpeaks.com. Looking forward to what should be a great race!
