TdF

Almost hate to blog on top of those awesome Detroit ride photos. Wish I could have been there!

The Tour de France came to me this weekend so thought I'd post a few photos. No Kona's on the course but plenty with the spectators. See more Kona's on the streets in London than almost any other major brand.

The view off the first bend of the prologue with Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and the London Eye in the distance. London was all about the bike this weekend.

Hincapie on his way to a third place finish...

Watching the finish of the prologue on the big screen in Hyde Park. So cool to see hundreds of thousands of cycling fans.

The Peloton starting stage 1 today at kilometer zero in London. CSC up front protecting the yellow jersey Fabian Cancellara who won the prologue (7.9km) by 13 seconds over second place Kloden...

Stage 1 winner was Robbie McEwen who went down hard in the prologue hitting a barrier and again today with 25km to go. His team paced him back onto the lead pack with 10km to go and he sprinted to take the win. Morale... never give up and it's all about riding with a great team. Be there Tuesday and looking forward to riding with all of you!
