I don't usually watch bicycle races or much TV, but I always peek in on this one. The French countryside is beautiful. My favorite part is when they race through the mountains, the strenuous and most difficult part of the race.

I watched a bit of it,but I could not keep looking,my fear that, suddenly one biker would make a mistake and all would come falling down..They were all so near each other,tho from the helicopter point of view from above they looked so nicely in coordination..

It is the truth in man that sets him free..

Yeah, I saw some crashes, but they were few and far between.

hi yngathriguy. I also like the Tour de France a lot.

I've been watching it live on Eurosport every year since 2005.

I most like the individual battles between different cyclists and teams.

I think great commentators (on Eurosport) who understand all the psychological side of it, make watching it very exciting.

I'm also pleased that the Tour is no longer dominated by the United States, and that it is more open, and the winner is more unpredicable now as well, as a result.

Vive la Eurosport!

Vive la Tour de France!!
