I’ve been watching the Tour de France this year on VS, and it is awesome. Well, awesome if you like watching bicycle racing. I watch because the French landscapes are so beautiful, and it’s fun to see the international competition.

Here’s a link of some photos of the Tour de France 2008 taken by photographers covering the race:

Watch Tour de France online:
You can catch the Tour on VS, and you can see live progress here.

You can also take a tour of the race on Google Maps, which shows the route the racers are taking. My favorite is to view the route via the street view.
