It's the most wonderful time of the year!!
And Alpe d'Huez is on this year, even better.

Looks like 5 American riders in the field this year. Any of them likely to be a top 20 contender?

7 US riders and 3 from Canada!!! :p

Phil always refers to him as "The young rider from Durango." :D

Who are the North American riders in the 2022 Tour de France?

Hey Baz,

Love me some tour and I have Peacock which will have daily coverage, but I’m a year away from living the life of leisure of a retired guy like yourself and just can’t watch 6 hours a day. Do you know of any short daily highlight shows?

Thanks and as always, Korey send scritches to your pups, but not treats- he is not a sharing dog!

Wow, normally, I would be glued to the TV on bike racing. I lost some interest in pro racing due to having no time to seek out 6 hours daily to sit in front of the TV. that's wife's job now:rolleyes:. I want to see more of Remco Evenepoel, VanAert, and VDP. Love to see how they stir up the honest nest.

Good evening Rutager....always a pleasure to hear from you! Please give Korey some Bazza belly rubs!

Unfortunately both my girls have passed. But I will let them know you sent hugs in my prayers tonight.

Also, I'm not retired - just semi-retired. That said - I do enjoy more flexibility with my time sucking obligations so hang in there - your time is coming. :)

Regarding TDF highlights....off the top of my head, my recommendation would be You Tube.

Here's an example from last year......46 minutes.....and if that's still too long, remember you can always adjust the playback speed in the settings! ;)

Speaking of YT.......

Hi Baz,

My deepest condolences, I didn’t realize the girls where no longer with us, I’m so sorry, losing such great companions is very hard.

Thanks for the links and ideas; around an hour is a decent time to watch, can do that while eating dinner and giving Korey some lap time.

Best,
Rutager

Stage 1 under way on a rainy TT course. The first guy out of the gate averaged approx. 30 mph...in the wet!

As usual, I have reserved 6 hours a day for the next 3-1/2 weeks to watch :D

Thank you, Rutager. Really appreciate it.

Despite the wet conditions, I thought this year's tour got off to a great start. In particular it was very pleasing to see the 31 year old Belgium win --- shocking the world! This is what it's all about!

From the Tour de France You Tube Channel - here is a 7:21 long highlight vid for those interested.

I'm watching today's Stage 2 right now and am looking forward to what happens on that bridge!

Peacock streamers get a 2 hour head start - I'm on USA cable.

*********Also - I should mention that there may be spoilers in this thread - so anyone who is watching delayed broadcasts......BE AWARE and perhaps do not open the thread until you've fully caught up.********

I don't think that wind is going to be much fun for those in it's teeth.

Another great day - fantastic finish!

BTW, anyone wondering where the Manxman is:

I think Sagan got pinched there a little bit. Alas....another great day on Le Tour!

Magnus had a good day. Imagine that home field energy.
