I know what you mean, I've visited loadsa French teachers but still can't speak a word.
I think compared to Cycle Sport the Velo is good value for money over a year ( and so much more chic on the coffee table) .
On the internet I like the style of the guys who write Velo 101 , Le Monde always come up with interesting interviews, while Cyclismag is a site I have only recently come across but is interesting. As is Velo club.net etc etc.
However, as your personal guilt trip, I think you should be investing any loose change into a road bike and start getting some miles in so you can at least watch next years ToB.
Anyroad - I thought Torquay was the "Riviera" , why not just pedal down there and grab a copy of Velo from the local tabac?
Still I suppose "Les Forçats de la Route" has a whole new meaning when you cycle over Dartmoor.
