VeloNews: 2005 Tour de France Special Coverage

VeloNews: 2005 Tour de France Special Coverage

Great article talking about CBS's troubles bringing the Tour to America. Especially interesting is their desire to have "bike cams" in the peloton, which would be fascinating!

""I read Daniel Coyle's book," said Armand, "and I think he said that the amount of air the peloton pushes out of the way is more than an F15 fighter. If we could show the audience that this moving mass of cyclists is more powerful than an F15, that would have an impact. I also think they would love to be able to see (in real time) how much power these guys are putting out individually as they ride; how they could light up a small city with the watts they put out, rather than just a little light bulb like most of us can."
