I just finishing up watching the Tour of France. It is nice to see that Lance has won the 7th one in a row. It was a good race. While watching I recognized the street at the end of the race. I was there once with my family. We went to Paris on year for a summer vacation. I really did not like Paris, but it probably Frances equivalent of New York.
Watching the race makes me want to try a century some time. Not in a race type ride, but I would love to do a century just to see if I can do it in one day. I think if it was a level route I could do it, but if it is more like going around Pittsburgh, I don’t know if I could do it in a day, maybe 2 days.
The Tour of France, and other stuff

Welcome , today is Saturday, December 21, 2024
Two things:
1. Train for it.
2. Get a comfortable bike seat!
I think you’ll have fun. The M&M ride (which I believe is past) is 50 miles down and 50 miles back on the Yough trail.
Yep, pretty good race to watch. Vino’s win in the last stage was exciting to watch. I’m sure he didn’t make the sprinters happy, but hey he was trying to make a statement. He is a free agent after this season, and I’m sure plenty of teams will be going after him. I liked how he pointed across his jersey when he was talking to Lance on the podium. I guess he was saying he would like Discovery to be on his jersey next year.
The M&M ride is from Meyersdale to Mckeesport, and they treat it as a two day event, 50 miles each day. They camp overnight somewhere along the route. I think there might be a one day option, but I’m not really sure. It goes relatively downhill in that direction, so it can be done.
