See ya next year for another exciting excursion into second guess and
eye-brow arching and backpedaling....

I'm curious as to how the French are going to P&M over another American
winning the tour....

French reaction to Landis winning (with panache) seems to be quite
favorable.

That's good to hear. Perhaps the French simply got tired of the "Tour
de Lance".

Now the wait til next year....

Cheers

I think that it was because the Tour was "boring" with Lance.
In the same way that the Romans asked for blood in the Coliseu, the french
spectators asked for drama.
They have had it.

NB : The French (as I am) are very aware that they have no rider for to
fight for the yellow in the next few years;
The winner to be American, British, German Italian... is for us absolutly
irrelevant - since he is not French .
Indeed you could note that the success of the Tour along the road was the
same.

I won't believe it until Brian Lafferty posts an article from L'Equippe in
the original language to that effect.

The racing goes on, you know. The next Grand Tour is the Vuelta starting
on 26th August; but there's Pro Tour stage racing in two weeks' time
(Tour of Germany); the Eneco Tour (benelux) two weeks after that; the
Tour of Britain[1] starting on the 29th August (and, incidentally, I'm
still looking for marshalls for the end of the first stage); the Tour of
Poland the week after that; the World Championship[2] in late
September... The Tour de France is great, but it isn't the only race.
And it certainly isn't the only race worth following.

[1] Yes, I know, not Pro Tour. But hey, it comes to my nearest town...
[2] Yes, I know, not stage racing.
