    I apologize for creating this note since I know it must
    be in here already. But a DIR/TITLE="TOUR DE FRANCE" didn't
    yield a 1996 entry so I thought it should have it's own
    entry - esp. since Big Miq will probably join a record
    5 wins, 5 straight wins - and the guy isn't even French
    How rude of him. Or am I mistaken, will it 6 if he wins?
    
    Anyway, is AlpDHuez on the route this year? IS the route
    a mountainous one? Any long time trials?
    
    And most importantly, is there any US TV coverage? ESPN?
    ABC?
    
    thanks

He's won five in a row already. This would be his sixth (in a row and total). There's a stage listing in the first reply to the above note. EPSN/EPSN2 should have daily coverage (but I don't know the schedule). -- Tom | |||||

| Two real-time links available from http://asaab.zko.dec.com/~lucia/timhome.html The TV schedule is on espn, at http://www.espnet.com/, other sports, other sports... Mig may in fact win 6 in a row, but I think it will be tougher for him this year than any prior, if all the competition is in form. | |||||
