			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, the action at<a href="http://www.letour.fr/us/homepage_horscourseTDF.html"> Le Tour</a> has been pretty hot. First team time trial in years and possible Astana drama have made for quite the spectacle at not even a week in. We should all do a little pulling for Vande Velde &#8212; our<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Vande_Velde"> &#8216;native son.&#8217;</a></p>
<p>This <a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-traffic-congestion-08-jul08,0,1335171.story">article in the Tribune</a> today further solidified my lack of desire to own a car. Not only can I simply not afford one, congestion is only going to get worse &#8212; especially because I&#8217;ve noticed a decrase in trafficn and <em>I don&#8217;t even sit in it. </em>Let&#8217;s not even get started on the city&#8217;s parking debacle.</p>
<p>In addition to last week&#8217;s interview; <a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=UJLl16T84nf7RJxhjip6MA_3d_3d">take the survey</a> and help out if you ride a Torker.</p>
<p>And, speaking of &#8216;cool,&#8217; what&#8217;s up with this weather? Climate-change is getting real spooky. I&#8217;m afraind I&#8217;ll catch cold riding home in ths rain (I forgot fenders). Oh well. If post &#8220;sneeze&#8221; on <a href="http://twitter.com/bikeblogchicago">Twitter</a> I guess you&#8217;ll have your answer.</p>
