Oh yeah, there is a race going on!
I liked Vandevelde's report:
http://www.velonews.com/diaries/rider/articles/8886.0.html
"Most people bonked today because they were either too scared to take their hands off the bars when the were going slow enough to do so - which was not often - or breathing too hard to even think of ingesting something. Needless to say, it will be another crazy day today."

Cool stuff: "When you have managed to survive a three-week Tour, you feel like a winner at the end, because you've managed to overcome yourself."

It would be a tiresome cliche if it weren't for the word 'like'.

I've been using those posters as reverse motivational tools for my software engineering class this semester. Since we don't have an irony grokking problem, it seems to be working quite well. (The idea is that since the motivational ones don't work per se, the worst that these can do is do no harm...)
