    The road cycling is over (today.) The track cycling starts in a couple of
    days. The MTB is next week:

    You should be able to see the time trials on TV sometime tonight?

    You've missed the road races. Paolo Bettini won the mens. You could
    probably use Google to find when the track events start.

    None. He rides bikes that wouldn't be allowed in the Olympics[1]. He holds
    the record for the fastest spped over 200 metres from a flying start. That
    record is, IIRC, 81mph.

    Greg Lemond won the fastest Tour de France time trial, Johann Bruyneel
    won the fastest TdF stage. Both are still alive, so...
