I bought a cycling.tv membership last night so that I could watch the Ventoux coverage today. It was better than I expected. A small but clear picture. The commentators were decent. One of them quickly identified Leipheimer as one of the strongest in the ten man chase group even though he'd done nothing but follow wheels to that point. When Leipheimer forced the final selection, he then correctly picked Menchov as the favorite to win the stage. Nothing too amazing, but good insightful commentary. And as much as I like Phil, Paul and Bob, it was nice to have a change of pace.
There's are also some interesting archives on the cycling.tv site. I watched Roger Hammond win the British Cyclocross title last night.

I'll have to try that some time but can't right now because I don't have a TV. We're renovating half of the duplex we live in, so we moved next door to ourselves and didn't bring a TV. All I have is a laptop that I'm using to pirate my own wireless network through the wall. Every morning I walk next door and steal my own paper. It's all very confusing.

Your lucky, they are no longer showing the DL on terrestrial in France, instead you get some guys hitting a ball to and fro with some tennis bats. Not what I call sport.

And cycling.tv doesn't let you watch the DL if you live in France. Velo-Fascists.

Ummmmm, okay, let me see if I've got this straight. You moved next door to yourself, steal from yourself, and two different Brets signed your post....
