The Tour is one of my favorite things to watch every year.  It's like an aerial tour of France (and this year, some of England, too).  I noticed that the race organizers had the Tour specifically go near some of the WWI battlefields this year - lots of coverage of various monuments near Verdun and other sites.

I also really enjoy Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen on NBCSN.  Phil has the most calming voice.  It's very relaxing to sit down with my morning coffee and catch parts of Le Tour.  At the end of July I'm always a little sad that I'll be losing that morning ritual.

And yes, Nibali seems to have it all wrapped up this year.  I just don't see anyone left that can mount a serious challenge.
