We'll miss you, nutmeg! Thanks for all the work you've done this year on the TdF threads. And thank you, Aeronaut, for taking over.

Geez, I had committed to driving a friend around town today to take care of some stuff, so I had to leave the thread while they were making the 2nd climb. Several hours later I called my best buddy down in San Antonio for an update, his wife Kel answers the phone and says "I'll go get Mike, just a second. Poor Lloyd...", and laid down the phone!!!!

I'm left thinking 'WTF happened!? Did he have a horrible crash!'? Then Mike got on the line and brought me up to speed... what a drag, I'm definitely bummed! :>(

This is going to be a crazy finish! It's going to be every man for himself getting to the topof the last climb for the wild ride down. Let's hope the tarmac holds up! We don't need any cross-country rides!
Thanks to you, Nutmeg, for putting up the threads every day! It has been fantastic to be able to cheer and commiserate with other fans here every day.
