Watched every minute of the tour. One of the best in recent memory as there was no clear winner until the time trial yesterday. Congrats to Cadel as he came so close in 07 & 08. A well deserved victory made even sweeter hearing the Aussie National Athem sung in Paris.

Now if we can only get an all Australian team together for next year. If you look at the current crop of Aussies participating in this year's tour it would be one **** of a team!!!!

And of course Tattooed he is a local boy for me! Certainly deserved it and proves once again the old adage ~ if at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again!
