swittle Jul 2009 11:06am, 4 Jul 2009 3,163 posts	0 swittle I'm really looking forward to this epic event which can lay a good claim to the toughest sporting test in the world. Although I don't cycle myself, I've been keenly interested since Ch 4 screened Le Tour in the 90s. Maybe it's the strategies, the tactics, the speed or the scenery Looking forward to seeing Lance Armstrong working as a domestique - his story verges on incredible imo. And you're right, Chris - in a different league from football
