The Tour happened to pass near the place I was staying on vacation. So I went to check it out.
The caravan. Cars that throw you stupid stuff (keyrings, hats, that kind of shit) so that when the cycles pass in front of you with the cameras, you act as a standing advertising panel.
These photos were taken the day Rasmussen was fired by his team.
A rolling boat!
Homer would get the yellow shirt if it got him a donut.
Damn Aussies.
Ah, good ol' French classics.
The official and only horse races company had a nice car.
Shouldn't it be "Euro tires" ?
Worst. Job. Ever. It was about 35°C outside, so a good 45° in the sun, and god knows how much inside the cow costume.
These were the leaders. They looked in my direction too, ohmygodohmygodohmygod!
I didn't take pictures of the pack, because I made a video instead. I'll post the link as soon as Youtube is done doing its youtubing to the file.
Edit: Ok, here's the
video of the pack. Yes, I'm a terrible cameraman, and yes, the compression is shitty. The group of people at the beginning were a bunch of rednecks I just couldn't not film.
