How dumb are you?

what? I don't think so, but I'd give it an outside 10% chance there was.

It is one of the four biggest sporting events in all of sports.

How dumb are you? a Womens' Tour de France is not a TOP 4 world sporting event.

It is, it pwns. You should turn on your tv.

[/ QUOTE ]
what are the other top events? World Cup soccer, Tour de France men, world series/superbowl?

I've had the tv on for 15 years and never seen any talk nor clips of womens tour de france.

Seriously? It's huge in bulgaria. Turn on channel 31 bro, espn's rerunning it right now.

I'm watching desert motorcycle racing on espn classic. espn has sportscenter, espn2 has drag racing, espnNEWS is playing sportscenter. I guess no womens cycling here.

Keep checking...

It's pretty much exactly the same as the regular tour de france except the bicycles don't have that nutbuster bar on the frame.

Serious women's bikes are exactly the same as men's, except smaller frames to fit smaller bodies. The triangle is the strongest, structurally, otherwise, you gotta add a ton of weight in construction to make up for the structural compromise.
