Description
Nobody cares about competitive bicycle racing. OK, "nobody" is too harsh a word. There are some fans of bike racing in America, and I'm sure I'll hear from both of them as a result of this column. In fact, I'll amend that lead sentence to say, "Unless an American is winning, nobody in this country cares about competitive bicycle racing." Even then, the "caring" is shown by a brief pause of the thumb as ESPN gives the results, followed by a yawn and a flip to see what sort of zaniness Regis and Kelly are up to. I speak, of course, about the annual bore fest known as the Tour de France. Held over three weeks, the 3,600 km (nearly a million mile) race is more commonly known in the good ol' U.S. of A. as the "Parade of Pedaling Pierres."
