Tour de France!!!

Its super late here and everyone already knows what happened on the stage so I will just cut to the chase.  Here are some of my favorite shots from today.

Shut up legs!!






Norway corner, not sure how this is even legal!

There are a ton more here, and probably twice that many that I didn't even load anywhere.

More pics

Everything that you might have thought about the race is true.  It was surreal being there and seeing all these guys laying it down.  When you see see Jens attacking, after all the drama going down with Radio Shack, you know the dude just loves riding his bike.

That was probably the best part of the day.  Everyone there was a total bike nut.  I am sure the Parisians avoid the day like the plagues, and it was still wall to wall people.  We didn't even try to get near the finish or awards.  It was like 5 deep by 11 in the morning and the race didn't get into Paris till almost 4.

The only bad part was that we missed most of the sponsors caravan, with a bunch of semis parked in front of us waiting to park on the Place de la Concorde.  Shout out to Nestle though for bringing the bunny.
