I'm sadened to hear about your plight, that must be extremely difficult to have to come to terms with. May I ask were your injuries as a result of a bicycle crash?
I too look forward to the annual SBS TDF coverage, which I might add gets better each year in my view. I agree regarding the Lance V Alberto battle, should be a 'cracker' given the tension that existed during this years tour between the master & the apprentice ;)
