Il est fini

It is finished. As quickly as it began it has come to completion. The 2008 Tour de France is over, and I’m heartbroken. The pre-race favorite, and one of my favorite riders, Cadel Evans, did not win. He placed second, for the second year in a row. Carlos Sastre from team CSC won. I was able to watch all 21 stages this year. It was a great month.
It seems Brooks is a little bummed out as well. After it was over he pulled out some of my cycling magazines to read through…I guess it was his way of coping.
Until next year…
Yeah, I was a little bummed too; however, the best man did win. That’s the greatness of the tour. Survival of the fittest, if you will. I thought CSC rocked the mountains. I would have loved to see Cadel win, but he still has some time left, Sastre is nearing the end of his career. Good tour, at least what I could watch of it here in ‘merica.
