yesterday I took out a tape of the 2004 giro, two mountain stages. One
was the finish in bormio with the gavia pass. Eight thousand feet- I
look at the spectators against the snow and feel cooler, and also
wonder how the f*** they get up there! The stage after that includes
the mortirolo.

You've got your head up your ass. The last 2 Tours were boring, but the
2003 TdF was about as good as it gets.


thanks,
