Still the best TV theme tune ever. And hardly surprising since it's by Pete Shelley. Pete farking Shelley! Legend.

Just been looking again at the parcours. We all know that stage 2 will be a belter and the cobbles could dent some riders' chances if they get unlucky, but Stage 10 caught my eye. I've been up those climbs in the Vosges and they were brutal and seemed to go on forever - at least it seemed that way to me with a 4-pannier camping load.
And the Pyrenees stages look to be super entertaining and I'm hoping for some big attacks on the HC summit finishes. Ouch.

Team presentations on ITV 4 now if anyone is interested
0/10 for the editing, almost unwatchable.

Wasn't it awful, cutting out half the team interviews including Sky, then Lemond's absolutely cringeworthy attempt to ask Froome about Wiggins.

ITV, i've come to learn, don't embarrass easily from poor programme quality.

I don't know if it was the same edit as Eurosport, but it can't have been any worse.

Lemond was shocking - his interviewing skills were embarrasing

Quite a dilemma today, ITV or Eurosport. I expect the latter to win hands down in terms of race commentary but ITV have always been good at the travelogue/reportage stuff, plus they've got David Millar. The downside is that they've got Sherwin and Ligget (I assume).
