The 2009 Tour de France is underway, with the opening stage taking place on July 4th. While I don’t expect many Americans to tune in on Independence Day, you do have 3 weeks left to enjoy this most epic of races. Yesterday we brought you a Tour de France Preview, but today we step back a bit, and provide a primer for Americans who are looking to experience the sport, possibly for the first time. With Lance Armstrong returning from retirement, coverage of this event on ESPN and other national sports outlets will most certainly be high, so we’re here to help get you oriented.
