I have also followed the TDF since the 80's and have got hubby interested as well. We also watch any other tours we find on Versus :D

I am part Irish, but I was a Premier level Highland dancer. In fact, I am supposed to be practicing so that I can perform at a friend's birthday party in a few weeks :shock: I hope these old bones can take it :lol:

Hey Akrogirl - That is so cool that you will be performing at a friend's b-day! I'm certain you'll do great!! So Highland dancing must be similar to Irish? This is only our second year of doing the Feis's and stuff so we aren't in the know about a lot of things. I still find it funny that the girls wear the curly wigs.

We also watch any races that are shown on Versus. Remember the old days when the TDF was only on ESPN daily for like 30 mins? We would tape it but half the time ESPN changed the time so we would miss it. And I think channel 7 showed the "weekly" update on Sunday - so 7 days of racing in an hour's time. Versus is wonderful!! Anyway, nice to chat with you!! Kim :)
