Tour de France News 2015
Tour de France News 2015 – Why hasn’t DA BG, French Cycling Gourmet non snobby guide to all things French given you any?
Well – other than the obvious(and logical answer) – that being that Le Tour is in the World’s eyeballs thanks to a multitude of media more powerful (and perhaps insightful) than any scribbles from me –
is that I previously detailed my continuing(albiet distant) relation to my cycling brothers in lycra in THIS POST
And here, is the other side of “speed thrills”…
THROW ME A BONE HERE, PEOPLE!
What are ya thinkin’!
another vision of the famous tour..one we never would hacve known otherwise…..bravo AGAIN DA BG!
too true tur(btw – interesting first name!) there are two kinds of reporting – the usual b.s. and the inside scoop from DA BG.
very balanced post…reminding everyone that our obession with speed is not without consequences.
you’re so right matt and DA BG is so RIGHT ON!
while i agree completely with matt and mary..for me the highlight of this post was the previous one…..relating DA BG’s relationship with the tour de france riders.
seconded ollie…i too particularly enjoyed that.(and the rest, of course)
the previous commentators have pretty much said everything i would have said..so all there’s left is another BIG thanks for this to DA BG! long may he spoil us!!!
tour de france coverage you can’t ge anywhere else. great stuff!
including the crash video was a master stroke;;COOL§
kEV;;AGREE ON THE CRASH VIDEO;;if YOUR INTENTION was (like DA BG’s)
to underscore the negative side of our obsession with speed/
i’m a big fan of DA BG’s writing/reporting…but for me..the tour de france is to quote shakespeare, “much ado about nothing!”
pat..respecty your opinion…but millions of sports fans (and francophiles) wouldn’t agree with you.
tom…viva la difference!
sorry to give you a thumbs down..but i thought including the crash video was NOT in the spirit of good sportsmanship.
neville – “Good Sportsmanship” – dude, what are you smoking?
paul.;with you 110%…..neville is another plant..for sure!
obviously emmie..the planet of “no crashes” (due to “good sportsmanship!)
