Holy crap! Just found this message in my inbox. Spending this morning getting
caught up on list e-mails with a second window open following the tour prologue

Things here in Inidiana are good. The terrain is pretty hilly. Found a couple
of great routes with short, steep hills and plenty of curves. Loads of fun to
ride. As always work keeps me from riding as much as l'd like. Hope to get out
more.

Mickey your ride in France sounds leg breaking. I gotta get to Europe one of
these days to check these climbs out.

There is a special excitement I feel each year that is exclusive to the Tour.
Last night I laid in bed awake thinking about it. As I write this Dave
Zabriskie is in the lead but the heavy hitters are starting to go off. It may
be close.

Okay, outta here for now,

David
