It's Tour Time!!
My favourite time of the year! And with no less than FOUR great sporting events taking place this weekend, I am not going to move an inch from the TV.
Not only is tomorrow the start of the 2009 Tour de France, but it is also the final Boks vs Lions test, the ladies Wimbledon final and the Durban July. What a great sporting weekend!
I have been away for a while, so haven't really been up to speed with the build up to the Tour, so have had a great week catching up with what's going on over in Monaco and what to expect from this year's Tour. What I do know, is it's going to be one of the best Tour's in many years.
