You'd think now would be a good time for this, the Europeans are on (I think...time zones confuse me quickly).
I'd help you out but I know bupkiss about it. I love socc-sorry, football but I could never follow it. It's hard enough to keep up on sportscar racing. All I can find out without a subscription is that there are 77 entries to the Le Mans...but that's something else entirely...

Ahh... 'race to the sun'. I thought you were talking about football. Well, Armstrong is back this year - that's what i heard anyways. Should be interesting.

Yes folks, Sunday kicks off the professional cycling season. And this year debutes the new Super League which Lance's Discovery Channel team is a part of. 20 teams in all and all teams have to commit to racing all 27 races specified during the season, from a bunch of the one day classics to the short tours like the Tour of Germany and the Tour of Switzerland.
And of course all three grand tours. Which brings us to the question I refered to in the first post......
Will Lance silence his detractors and finally ride the Giro?
