    have to say that the road course is beautiful. criss-crossing many locations including crossing the famous Great Wall.

    however, i cannot imagine sitting here for 6+ hours watching the whole event.

    I watched it intermittently between weightlifting, badminton, gymnastics, rowing.... I've always found cycling interesting (don't shoot me;):p)
