I got pretty excited by @Skinny's heroic charge up the field after a major setback, the clinical perfection of Kristoff's approach demands awe and respect, and the more mortal riders giving it their all on their own adventures of a lifetime make great stories of everyday heroism. But I don't see the romance in people booking a month off work to plod across Europe at half the speed they are capable of!
I have no problem if others do, though - the event is big enough to satisfy everyone
Transcontinental Race - the clue is in the name!
