Baynative, I never properly thanked you for your magnificent TdF 2013 live thread... I am doing so now! Thank you. :-)

Excellent job, and it was a fabulous three weeks (which always goes by too fast).

Glad to see Great Britain's Chris Froome win Le Tour... he deserved the win, and is an admirable and humble athlete. I'm also glad that doper Alberto Contador never ended up on the podium in Paris (although he did for his team win).

I noticed many of the French pro-traditional marriage flags along all 20 stages of the TdF this year, and also many of England's Cross of St. George flags. I'm not sure if the Cross of St. George flags were flying just for British national pride, or maybe they convey sort of a subtle "Don't Tread on Me" message from British citizens toward Islamic terrorism (scotsman, can you help me out here?).

Anyway... hearty congratulations to Chris Froome to and all of the TdF winners!
