Tour de France?

You want BORING? Try watching televised lawn bowling....

Saw a clip from the Tour when a Yellow Lab was wandering across the track, and a cyclist went a-over-t bumping into him. Dog wasn't hurt, thank God, nor was the cyclist - but the owner was RIGHT THERE, cause he wandered off with his dog when the dog ran a little ways from the track.

IDIOT.

Our local sports announcers kept showing that clip over & over.
I winced everytime. Poor pup.

A couple of months ago I was driving into town and was behind a cyclist for a few corners before I could safely go past. Our area is modestly hilly and this guy was struggling with one of the slopes. He would not have been quite so conspicuous had he not been wearing his spotty "King of the Mountains" shirt.

Not sure whether it was supposed to inspire him, or whether he was just being ironic, but it certainly gave me a good laugh.
