I think if they had a location like London to showcase they would be more inclined to have a prologue.

This year was unique that instead of a town applying to host a stage the whole of Brittany put in an application so i guess they saw this as something different to try!

I'll go with it, and of course I'll be watching.  I'm still bitter about the decision to drop the Team TT, though.  It's the most beautiful thing in sport to watch.

I must admit I do like it as well... and since TDF is the only race we get full live coverage here of - I miss it more because i never get to see them!

Versus has Cyclysm Sundays, which is cool because you get to see a lot of different races all year, but it kinda stunk because we were a day late catching the Giro TTT.  They had a few highlights, though.  Watching the teams come out of the start with each rider starting to mash the hard gears is just awesome.

Along the lines of a family move, Beth, a friend of mine just found out her parents are moving to... Alaska.

She's in pharmacy school and living about thirty minutes from them in Memphis right now.

wow!

Wow that would be a shock when you are used to having them so close...

We moved to Bangkok when I was 10...

Yikes!  How was that? 

My Dad's parents moved once while he was in college.  He went back to his old house and there was a note on the front door with directions to the new house.

I'm lining up the igloo jokes, but I think I'll have to judge how she's handling it before I do.  She's got a sister who lives in Maine, though, so she's used to a spread out family.

We got daily highlights for the Giro for the first time this year - about 15 minuts long but I enjoyed having some coverage.

We get one hour coverage of a lot of the other races on Sunday but its an interesting mix and they may be broadcast a couple of weeks after they happen. I just forget its on (and I work for the broadcaster - oops!)

I've heard it's beautiful up there, though.  Wouldn't be a bad visit, and I guess you'd always have a white Christmas.

Sigh... time moves so slow when you've got the high bid on a qroo frame and fork on ebay.  Yep, I've decided to build a tri bike.  With SRAM, because well... just to be different.

Of course, if I don't win this thing... I guess it's back to daydreaming.

We can't blame it on the one person who is always on when us state siders are burning the midnight oil in Nibbs.  We don't want to lose her.
