French lycra on tour



July in the house TeamSAK is all about everything French. Three little letters take over our screens and laptop ( and no they are not EPO!). They are TDF - which as anyone remotely interested in cycling knows stand for Le Tour de France.
Coverage on local television station SBS is second to none although I don't think Ahubby thinks Gabriel Gate's cooking segment is the daily highlight.

Interest in the race is increased by the various tipping competiitons available. We love the one supported by CBD Cycles and the Melbourne Triathlon Club. CyclingNews website also gets a workout while researching tips for winners of each stage.

After the allegations of drug tainting in previous races 2007 will need to set a new standard. Viva la France. Go Aussies - in particular - Robbie McEwen, Stuart O'Grady, Cadel Evans !

I was devastated in 2006 when my hubby edited the daily tapes of each stage to remove Gabriel!

What are you talking about. Yes, the cycling is great but how can you not enjoy the daily dose of "Chez" from Gabriel! And don't forget "Merci Christian..." for his accompanying wine suggestion.
