Waking up early in July to watch the Tour de France

There’s something so relaxing and pleasurable about casually watching hours of relatively uneventful bike racing, sweeping shots of the beautiful European countryside, Bob and Phil’s commentary, occasional drama, and the exciting sprints at the finish line. And you get 3 weeks of it, so for a short period every summer, it becomes a quiet part of your morning routine.

I only wish there were more options for watching it outside of Peacock, but if you still have a subscription from the Olympics, you can easily watch. I’m not even a “sports person” and I love it so much.
