Default Why watch TDF in person (really long)

Mike, that was a great story. I saw a stage live in 2001, and you
described what I experienced. It's something I am very glad I did, but
it's also something I don't have to do again for a while. It's the
experience of the event that you have to see in person. To see the
progress of the race, the TV coverage, especially in France, is much
better.


I'm hooked on seeing more mountain stages, but don't feel a need to ever see
a stage finish again (unless I scored some sort of VIP seating). Trying to
wrap myself around a telephone poll and hang there for quite some time, with
a chance to, at best, see some helmets stream by above the crowds... *that*
I don't miss!
