By Carol Pearson

Many Americans probably find it hard to believe that an outdoor sport, such as cycling, has already started its season.  As a few die hard cycling fans may be aware, however, the 2008 Tour of California is currently going on and is set to end tomorrow.  There was an exciting sprint finish at the end of Stage 6 today, though.
