Tour de France time....again. Seems like just yesterday they were rolling into Paris. Thanks to Outdoor Life Network, I've got live tour (my family does not think this is a blessing) every day! What a prolouge, huh? Lance, the old time trial specialist showed why as he took that short and intense one Saturday. Today was really fun though. The look on Bertogliati (who is that guy??) when we pulled away from the peleton and held on. On camera it looked like the running of the bulls, but with 1 runner and 100 bulls. Fun!

JULY 7, 2002 Rubens Bertogliati, 23, one of the youngest riders in the Tour de France, tarnished the image of the bigger names today when he sprinted clear with 1,000 yards to go to steal the first stage and take the leader's yellow jersey by three seconds. Bertogliati, a winner of only two previous races, gave Switzerland an unexpected advantage at least for a day. His win has also taken the pressure off American Lance Armstrong, the race favorite who was openly looking for
a new wearer of the maillot jaune after his victory in Saturday's Prologue time trial.
