Thought of the day: do hipsters follow the Tour de France?
Although i'm definitely not what you would call an avid cyclist, i've been following the Tour somewhat obsessively in India. I blame my father, who is definitely an avid cyclist. Come the latter parts of July he could reliably found watching the Tour far past his bedtime, and i have fond memories of coming home to work to a darkened family room illuminated only by sprinters and the Peloton.
And i was thinking: it would be so very, very hipster to follow the Tour. Cycling, obscure sports, foreign things: it all clicks! And that's not necessarily something i want to be a part of. All my life i grew up around cycling and the Tour and now those damn hipsters are invading.
So let me know--there are no hipsters in India. So far.

Q: If a hipster dies in the Tour, does anyone care?
