Though I'm kind of sad each day to not have been able to watch it LIVE.
I will say also that I miss Versus' coverage. I liked to watch for the word of the day or whatever they called the contest and also the trivia. I'm not one for contests, but I found that fun. *dork* I thought they had better video summaries of the stages - though don't count on my memory for that one. I catch up on bicycling.com. But they usually have just interviews and not much race video.
Anyway - I don't participate much in forums. I just wanted to let y'all know there's another Tour fan out there!  |
Wecome to the thread!
I agree with you about the change (re: Versus). I noticed that the coverage seemed less cohesive...something just seems "sloppy" or doesn't transition well, and also the lack of contests, but didn't put it together.
(oh, and I am the person who delays turning on the TV set!)
