i guess because i live in a rural area and have only been able to view the tdf for the last 6-7 years, with satellite and recording capabilities, i love everything about it. the hd quality pictures of the beautiful country and the commentaries on the sights and sounds of the race are still something i am totally entertained by.
i am encouraged by the whole tdf experience every year to ride even when i would find an excuse otherwise. i would give the broadcast most of the credit for getting me back on my bike after a serious health crisis a few years ago. yeah, i am a total tdf fanboy!
disclaimer: i did notice how some of the politics and petty personal selfishness did come out in several instances. but, being an optimist and "big picture, bottom line" type person, i did tend to overlook it.
