2008 is underway
Not the Tour specifically, but I've begun to blog about the cycling season. You can find these posts at tdf08.com or 189riders.com or followthetour.com or tdf09.com or even tdf08.blogspot.com.
Here's the MAIN LINK.
Enjoy!

Domain thoughts
I'm not sure if I'm going to keep tdf07.com or let it expire. I don't want to lose the posts that live here on blogger - and I think they'll still live - but I might have to find a new way for people to get to this valuable resource.
If you have suggestions, let me know.

Floyd out, what's next?
I have to confess that I haven't really put much effort in the way of preparing for the Tour de France 2008. I do own 189riders.com and tdf08.com and will soon be forwarding this address here (tdf07.com) to that - or just changing the settings.
But for July 2008, I am still trying to figure out if I'll travel to France to cover it, if I'll be on sabbatical, or what the plan is.
In the meantime, go visit my blog or my other writing sites - jeffcutler.com, ideas2words.com and thingstoworryabout.com.
More to come...

tdf08.com is coming
They announce the course for the 2008 Tour de France in two months. So I'm gearing up to have TDF08.com up and running soon.
I'm also working on two writing projects to accompany this event.
See http://www.jeffcutler.com for more details or follow along at http://www.bowlofcheese.com or http://www.tdf08.com
Latah!

The TDF07.com Photo Gallery
Soon (or maybe already if I've worked quickly enough) you'll be able to click here and you'll find all my photos from the final Stage of the 2007 Tour de France.
I'm already in withdrawal. And MANY people are commenting that this great cycling race might be on the verge of extinction. I'll comment here a bit throughout the summer.
But soon I'll be launching http://www.tdf08.com and will maintain that through the 2008 edition of the Tour de France.
Best,
Jeff

My Spot at the Tour
Here's where I'll be at today's final stage of the 2007 Tour de France.
In the photo with all the magic marker, I'll be in that CIRCLE. The riders are going in the direction of the ARROWS and the Louvre is marked by three DOTS.
That's the pulled-back view.
In the close-up view, I'll be on the street corner indicated by the ARROW.
Look for me on TV as the bikes emerge from the tunnel.

By now you should know...SPOILER
In case you're Tivo-ing the Time Trial be warned, this post tells you what occurs in Stage 19.
I'll wait while you click away...in fact, here's a photo or two to look at while you wait.
OK, here's the news. Contador is STILL in the lead by 23 seconds. And if tradition is any indicator, that's how the 2007 version of the Tour de France will end.
Alberto Contador in first.
Cadel Evans in second.
Levi Leipheimer in third.
There's your podium...I'll post a wrap up post tomorrow or when I get back in the United States. Until then, feel free to read my other blog for Paris info and photos. I'll be at the final stage tomorrow in Paris and will be taking probably 100+ shots.

No Rain So Far
My guess and the Parisian weatherpeople have both been wrong. The roads in Paris are dry and the roads at the Time Trial are also in good, dry shape.
Times so far have been pretty fast and we may see no change in the standings.
20 riders left to go, including the top three - Contador, Evans and Leipheimer.
NO SPOILERS TODAY - I'll give the results ONLY after they are official.

Tomorrow's Time Trial - NOT A SPOILER
This is being written at 10:28PM Paris time, so it can't tell you who will win tomorrow's 55KM time trial or who will win the 2007 Tour de France.
What it will tell you is who I THINK will take this race because of the conditions forecast and because of the circumstances.
Remember way back in THIS POST, how I said that Levi Leipheimer was likely going to be the 2007 winner of the Tour de France? I still feel that way.
Here's how it will shake out...
Levi goes third to last and puts more than a minute into Cadel Evans effectively taking second place.
Then Contador - in the slippery conditions - plays it too safe and loses a chunk of time in the stage so that Levi ends up wearing the Yellow Jersey to start the final stage in Paris.
Discovery Team said at the beginning of the Tour de France that Levi was their leader. They supported him from the get-go and it's only been Contador's valiant riding and happenstance that has put Contador in yellow.
So, the team management will have to make a decision and they will go with Levi in Yellow and Contador in white, finishing 1-2 on the podium on Sunday.
I'll see you tomorrow night after the time trial is complete.

Poker day
With the 2007 Tour de France all but decided (unless Levi pulls a LeMonde or Cadel blows away the pack), I spent the morning at the Aviation Club of France playing poker. There I spoke with a bunch of Parisians who voiced concern for the sport and disgust for the doping that's going on.
It didn't help that I'm an American and they see us as getting away with one of the the worst dopers in history - Lance Armstrong.
I tried to explain that Lance used EPO to recover from his cancer treaments, but the guys at the club didn't understand. Either it was my French or their English or both, but they don't think that a true winner of the Tour has existed since 1996. That year, Miguel Indurain won his fifth Tour de France.
Since then, Parisians I talked to feel that Bjarne Riis, Jan Ullrich, Marco Pantani, Lance Armstrong and Floyd Landis have all been doping winners. The only rider not proven to have doped is Lance, but sports fans in any country can be a little irrational.
This year if it ends with Contador, Evans and Leipheimer, we could be starting a new era of drug-free riders and winners.
By the way - SPOILER ALERT - with 73KM left to go in Stage 17, four riders lead the peloton by more than 16 minutes. None of the leaders are in contention for the Yellow jersey and the Discovery Team is keeping the pace in the peloton high.

26 July 2007
Two days to decide
Right now Contador is in the lead by about 90 seconds over Cadel Evans and by three minutes over teammate Levi Leipheimer.
The stage that will decide this race - now that Rasmussen is out - is #19. That's a 55.5KM individual time trial.
We could see a 1-2 Discovery Team finish in Paris this Sunday with Contador hanging on and Levi blasting Cadel Evans away.
This is just crazy!!

Riders left in the race
About a third of the way into Stage 17, Menchov (also of Rabobank) withdrew leaving 141 riders in the 2007 Tour de France.
Another one bites the dust
OK. Take a deep breath. I do not know what today's stage did to the GC, but I do know that this blog has been right AGAIN.
Last night or early this morning the Rabobank team and Michael Rasmussen parted ways and therefore Rasmussen is OUT of the 2007 Tour de France.
His training program leading up to the Tour de France was suspect as were his preparations for this race. Because the team leadership couldn't verify that he was training according to the rules, they decided that he couldn't represent them.
Then, this morning, the Tour de France and organizer Mr Prudhomme decided to disallow Rasmussen's participation.
Now let me check the wires and race transcripts emailed to me to see how today's ride shook out.

The GC after 16 Stages
After the 16th Stage of the 2007 Tour de France, here are your general classification standings. Remember, TDF.com is courtesy of Jeff Cutler and Novel Ideas. Feel free to read my other blog - Bowl of Cheese (www.bowlofcheese.com) or visit my professional writing site Novel Ideas (www.ideas2words.com).
While we wait for the Tour de France officials to give us the figures, remember, as always, all sites can be reached via Jeff Cutler dot com (or if you prefer, www.jeffcutler.com).
Looks like they are waiting for more riders before giving us the numbers. I'll have the GC for you shortly.
