I loved this, brilliantly written. Forwarded it to the wife so hopefully she'll ask some different questions to last year :D

The tour is without doubt one of the toughest sporting events in the world. Each day a rider needs to consume 8000 calories or roughly as much as an American eats

    Up to 20 riders, heads down exerting close to two thousand watts each for the ten seconds it will take them to get to the line, push their bikes and themselves to the very limit of what their drug pumped bodies are capable of.

    Made me smile too, I'm sure Americans eat more than 8000 calories a day though

    Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved
