By all rights the TDF should be as interesting as a 1500 meter swimming race, a marathon, or the Ironman. However, spectacular scenery, the feeling of speed on the downhills, and the hyperbolic calls about competitors cracking or coming off the back creates drama. It was also good seeing an American (Sepp Kuss) competing so well last year.
