My Thoughts on the 2010 Tour de France

Well with the conclusion of another 3 grueling weeks of bicycle riding by 200 amazing athletes, I've had my fair share of gripes and agreements and the things I'll miss most. Here I share them in no particular order:


~I still don't like Alberto Contador - no matter what you can't trust the ole pistolero, but he is a damn good cyclist



~Andy Schleck is capable of riding without his brother Frank ~France is a beautiful country, but I still don't like French people and their attitudes



~Lance probably should have stayed in retirement



~There were some incredible crashes



~I think the cobbles should be included every year



~Mark Cavendish is fully insane



~Cadel Evans needs to toughen up... I mean really dude? crying after losing the yellow jersey? ~I'm definitely skiing Morzine / Avoriaz in the future and staying in one of those crazy cliff side hotels



~The Bobke said that he hates soccer and that the sport sucks!!



~Following the riders rants and pics on twitter



~The awkward kisses from the podium girls for the stage winners



~Punches being thrown by a couple of lycra wearing badasses



~Does Miller Light really think that we believe Lance actually knows how to kick back and kick in??



~Phil Liggets and Paul Sherwin's British accents



~The incredibly annoying hum of a helicopter



~Shaved Man Legs



~The Alps, but more spectacularly The Pyranees



~Bradley Wiggins and Team Sky were a huge flop



~The Spectators and their umm outfits (or lack there of)



~Do people actually drive up and over these insane mountain passes in little European cars?? Really do they??



~Head Butting



~Fabian Cancellara (Big Bear) and his beyond human TT's



~The French town of Pau is actually pronounced as Poo ("So today the riders have a rest day in Poo")






And what I'll miss most of all.........JENS VOIGT !!!!!!! See ya in 2011!


Vive Le Tour
