Coming from a family with a cycling background, Father as an NSW Road Racing Champion and an uncle selected on the Aust Olympic squad, I've been following the "Tour" ever since SBS started telecasting the race. Several Aussies have put in excellent efforts in past years and this year is just the greatest result, not forgetting that it is a team effort and Cadels' team members have laid the foundations for his win, though his efforts in the last few mountain stages and last nights time trial were magnificent.
Haven't had a decent nights sleep for 3 weeks, watching the race, between naps on the lounge and getting up at 5:00 to go to work, looking forward to some early nights ( if it's cloudy ). Congratulations to Cadel Evans and his team for a great victory, dare I say , I wont miss a minute of tonights telecast.
