Tour of California

My husband is a HUGE fan of cycling. Did I say HUGE!!! So this is an exciting week for him. The first big race of the cycling season is the tour of California. Sorry babe, I'm not sure how many days are in the race ~ 7??? They start up here in Northern Cal and race down to Southern Cal. But the exciting part for Hubby (who watches every stage intently each night) is the second day. They start in Santa Rosa and race into our neck of the woods. The finish line is in downtown Sacramento and hubby was there waiting as the racers crossed it. Here are a couple pictures he got. The first one is of the Pelaton (sp?) coming toward him, and the second shows the speed they're going as they pass him.

We had a lazy weekend and didn't venture downtown to check it out. Looks like there were lots of spectators!!
