Paris, 4 July 2003: My first Tour de France.
I had never seen a bike race. I had only vaguely heard of Lance Armstrong. I had no idea what I was doing there. Yet, that day I was broadcasting live on television. I fumbled my way through a few platitudes, before summing up with the words, "...Dave Millar just missing out on the Yellow Jumper." Yes, the Yellow Jumper.

From up-close-and-personal encounters with Lance Armstrong to bewildered mishaps with the local cuisine, Neds been there, done that and got the crumpled-looking t-shirt.
Eight Tours on from Neds humbling debut, he has grown to respect, mock, adore and crave the race in equal measure. Whats more, he has even started to understand it.
