2008 Tour de France

The Tour starts Saturday without an opening time trial. Instead there will be 197.5 KM of hills on the first stage. Plenty of good articles related to the tour on velonews.com. Here is a good one titled "The Great Eight"

I couldn't help but notice that 4 of the 6 bike manufacturers you carry are being ridden by teams on The Tour. Also couldn't help but notice that nobody on The Tour is riding a Trek. Sweet. What are the clones going to do now - flood EBay with their Madones and 1200s so they can buy a TCR or Orca?

I know and now I am "stuck" with a Gold-plated $7500.00 Trek.

Thanks Lance or should I say, Mellow Johnny?
