Likewise being an Aussie means some REALLY late nights in the month of July. SBS (the greatest tv station ever) continue to support the Tour with live stage telecasts every night. Viewing starts around 10pm local time, and finishes anywhere between 1 & 3am.

As I said, July can be tiring.

SBS have a blog that’s being posted by “our own” Mike Tomalaris, so that’s one way to stay in touch should you fall asleep every night.

An other option is to check out Google’s very own Tour de France 2008 Google Map where you can ride the 2008 Tour route using Street View.

Will these stop options you from pinning your eyelids open every night in an atttempt to watch every stage finale live in real time..? No. But hey, it’s something.
