        Will watch what I can . Is it on Eurosport?
        Yep. Live coverage daily. Rest days on Monday 27th and Tuesday 4th.

        I just checked the route. It's all in the north. Madrid - the finish of the final stage is the southernmost point. It doesn't matter but it looks weird on a map.

        .
        Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



        May the Lord bless this post.

          I could google it. But Neil...sorry Red Setter knows more about it than me.




          But you already looked.

            Damn, I much prefer (and am far more familiar with) central and southern Spain.

            Oh well, I'm looking forward to it
            Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’

              I think it's becoming abundantly clear over the past few weeks that Nige doesn't know anything about pedalling. :haha;

                  Shaggy thinks he is looking forward to it until he realises it's like the road race in the Olympics only instead of lasting 5 hours it going to last weeks. Then his excitement will turn turn to bafflement, which will in turn turn into anger.

                              Should be renamed "Vulva Espana".
                              Are we winning?
