Have you been watching Le Tour?
I’m sure you haven’t. I have, and since I’ve gotten on my bike again, I have watched almost every day of the race. It’s been a weird start to Le Tour. Ever since the director changed last year, the normal rhythms of the opening week have been upset. Gone is the time trial prologue; they race the first day. There are a few categorized climbs in the first week. It’s no longer flat stages punctuated with a bunch sprint. There is much racing to be done. It’s rather exciting.
