Graphing the Tour De France

Two things are going on right now:
-
The Tour De France.
-
I need to learn a new charting library.
I started looking around and Highcharts seemed like a nice JS solution with a complete API. It does not seem like they are synced up.
At the same time, I found a bunch of cool historical data on the Tour De France. I set up a MySQL database, made a few PHP pages, and here we have the results.
The most interesting places to find in podcasts. It is amazing to see the acceleration, though there appears to be an plateau or possible even a decline in the last few years. Doping possibly?
What ages are winning the tour?
And the way it should continue to use any service other than its own crappy one.
Now, back to watching the races.
