Astra is the name of the satellite if you want to get the
wife/dog/whoever to tilt the dish while you check the picture "right
a bit, left a bit" etc
It was a good win by O'grady today - he has been riding very
strongly throughout the race - well done! Maybe a too outside chance
for the green jersey....
Tomorrows stage is good - the col de Luitel is very steep.
Unfortunately, Ill be cyclingnews'ing it myself as Eurosport has had
Tennis from Queens all week and is capping off the w/e with European
championship football!! :-(

Tommorrow is my birthday and my ideal present would be to be on the
stage to my favourite place in the world - Grenoble - watching the
Dauphine instead of being in windy Scotland!!!

Have you ever been to France for the Tour? Or planned to? The co-
moderator of the group, Discohokie from Atlanta went the year before
last.
