Chomping At The Bit

At 5 a.m., Ged and I were wide awake.  Why, you ask?

BECAUSE THE TOUR DE FRANCE ROUTE WAS TO BE ANNOUNCED AT 5:30 a.m. ET.

Notice how it's still dark out and I have both the iTouch and the laptop handy for looking at the route and watching the live announcement in Paris...

Ged and I are already planning our trip to France.  It's looking like we'll follow the last week of Le Tour that goes through Italy (Pinerolo) and then heads to Alpe d'Huez after going through several nasty climbs along the way.

We've already been to the start of Le Tour.

Here are some pics from our time there back in August.

I wonder if they took the Contador posters down...

Only eight and a half more months to go.
