I really enjoy the end bits of the days coverage, they whack on some music and show some highlights and its pretty uplifting. It reminds me a bit of the film Brain Power (I think it was called).

Am I alone in thinking that a film, maybe an hour long would be pretty cool? 8) First thought this last year.

    Best cycling film apart from A Sunday in Hell.

    Havent seen that no. Its region 1, too, so its imcompatable with most dvd players in the UK unless you can chip them. Or atleast certainly incompatable with mine. :oops:

    It's on sale at the Bromley Video and Evans Cycles too, but it doesn't say what region that is. I'm pretty sure it's region-free tbh, because I just checked where I bought mine from (some Amazon Marketplace seller) and it says region 1, but played fine on my crappy DVD player.

    There's always http://cyclingtorrents.nl though...

    Anyway, it's really good and just like you described... lots of soaring musical sequences over the mountains and so on.

    Ahh cool. Will look out for that later. See if I can justify the expense :wink: :P
