Thanks!  Cycling is certainly popular where I live (up in the coastal 
mountains south of San Francisco) and we always seem to see an 
increased number of teams on some of the Category 2 climbs leading up 
to and during the Tour.  But I think that a lot of the attraction of 
the Tour would be to actually see it in France, not just on television.
