I noticed several blogs report on Carlton Reid's (of BikeBiz) new YouTube group for bike videos so I decided to sign up. Of course I'm familiar with YouTube, but only as a consumer of videos and not a provider. So I went digging through the GC archives and found two mildly amusing videos I shot of mountain bikers falling into the creek. Long time readers may remember, but for those of you that are new around these parts you can find the stories and videos here and here.
Anyway, I checked around...there are few other bike groups out there in YouTube land, but Carlton's is as good as any so join up and submit some content.
I also upgraded my mobile phone to a Palm Treo 650. Yes I know the Treo 700P just came out, but when it comes to phones I prefer to be a close follower and not an early adopter. The price is just too high. Anyway, I was out there on TreoCentral and found this handy little app. to track the Tour de France. There's speculation it will be upgraded for 2006 so I'll keep an eye out for the new version for those that are interested.
The application is simply a map of all of the stages, some statistics on the stage, the teams, and riders. I'd like to see the software upgraded for mobile use to download the latest race statistics in real or near real-time. Does anyone know of any other Palm or Mobile applications to track the Tour?
