This is a just a wee reminder to one and all out there to find a way of watching at least some of the TV coverage of this year's Tour. It starts on Saturday 4 July in Utrecht and ends in the now traditional procession in Paris on Sunday 26 July. Personally I can't stand the tradition that decrees the leader will not be challenged on the final stage. It's a race for God's sake. Let it be a race right to the end!
As before the daily TV coverage is on ITV4 and Eurosport. For my part, viewing will mostly be restricted to the nightly highlights show. I certainly won't be posting any previews or reports every day, but I will be posting occasional comments and you are most welcome to do the same. If anyone wants to give daily previews and reviews, then they too will be very welcome (Marco4 was the man for the Tour threads and was something of an expert, but he hasn't been around for some months - sadly missed in my opinion). It's a tremendous spectacle and I love it.
