Didn't get a chance to watch today's stage - will do so right now - what's left. To answer your question - I posted some links and videos in the first 3 posts of this thread that will have all the info you want, including the mountains.
I've been watching the tour for many many years...since before Lemond won his first one. Had a college roommate who schooled me on who Eddie Merx was. He and I ended up doing a bunch of cycling tours - some day trips and one overnighter in Anastasia State Park, St. Augustine. He had a Raleigh Pro - which at the time was a very credible machine. I now ride a Trek 6100, which will soon be 20 years old but still holding up.
I love this event as much (ior more) than any other sporting event in existence. As much for the pageantry and tradition as the sheer endurance aspects. It wouldn't be the same without Phil, Paul, and Bob Roll. The Lance era was very memorable...
Thanks for your enjoyable comments and posts Look 171.
