    They're more concerned with sports that are interesting.

    I thought it was irrelevant since it was found out everyone was doping and they stripped everyone of everything from all past races?

    Tell her if she has a craving to kill people she should start with herself. You can tell her I said that if you don't want the added heat. Fuck her.

    My brother in law was a pro cyclist and he doesn't even care about the tour this year.
    Its about as interesting as watching the videos you post. On the list of things I'd rather watch than the Tour is the WNBA, bowling, a televangelist, etc.

    I started watching grand prix motorcycle racing a couple months ago. It's kind of like the Tour de France, except they have 1000cc engines in their bikes that make them go 200+mph and it's awesome.

    Only reason cycling is interesting to me is because I used to do it myself, so I have some kind of appreciation for the extreme effort they have to put forth to do it. At my best I could do about 75 miles a day, and I was lucky to break a 20 mph average. These guys in the tour de france are doing about 200 miles a day, for three weeks in a row, at 25 mph, up mountains.... I don't get it.

    I can't imagine this being something one watches religiously. It's just cycling. Days of cycling. It's Lord of the Rings for French people.

    It'd be different if it was like Death Race 2000 and the bikes all had tire slashers, missile launchers and other shit to kill your enemy, but no, it's just... cycling. I don't care how fast and how far they're going. It doesn't translate to TV.

    Aaaaaaand we're cycling.

    Still cycling.

    Wooop OOOP! Someone's going to crash- nope, still cycling.

    And 23 days later someone gets a yellow shirt.

    Yea, but have you ever ridden your bike downhill, on concrete, at 62mph?

    Guys, it was a trap. He just posted a cycling video. Look what you all did.

    Be ashamed.

    Dude have you ever tried to fist another man on a bike going 62 mph? It's easy to make jokes from your couch, but the truth is it takes a world class athlete to pull off that kind of maneuver.

    Although to be fair, while it's officially against the rules, it's pretty common knowledge that most of the riders use lube.
