As you are probably aware, Spain has won two major sporting events this summer - first the World Cup on July 11 and then the Tour de France on July 25. Spanish flags continue to fly from many balconies, TV antennas, cars, and a myriad of other spots. A lot of folks have added decals on the outside of their cars or decorative items hanging from the rearview mirror, you can buy t-shirts everywhere and even soccer balls in Spain's colors. It seems to me like there are a lot more serious cyclists on the streets. There is a lot of excitement here and I imagine it will last quite awhile.
