Hey heads, the “Tour de France”:1 starts on Saturday. This will be “Lance’s”:2 final Tour, and he’s attempting to win it for the _seventh_ time _in a row_. But that’s not the point.

The point is is that Lance is doing podcasts as part of his deal with Sirius radio. You can check them out here (Cancel that link… I can’t get it to work for some reason. Try the link from the image on the right from “this”:3 blog instead) . I remember just a few years ago the best “coverage” you could get on the Tour de France was to read the sports section of the New York Times. If you were lucky, the would actually have an article on the day’s race… but most likely all you got were the results (and on some days, you won’t even get that). Glad to see that times have changed.

This podcast is officially *LAME*, so don’t waste your time checking it out.
