I missed this years Tour de France. I signed up at NBC Sports and payed for the cycling package. So I have all the stages for me to watch, plus other races as well. YES!!!!!

Don't tell me who won, because I don't know. PLEASE don't.

Indeed. What bad luck developing chronic asthma just as he's embarking on a pro cycling career.

Wasn't he going to set a team up once or did I just dream it?

I think he did, didn't he? Or wasn't it planned but didn't quite come off? Perhaps he had trouble finding enough top flight riders with really bad asthma?

I am in Malta now, not the best place to base a cycling team, the riders would be knocked off within days.
