When you are in France,Tour start is only 10 km from your inn (12:30 p.m.),
and it's your chance to see Lance,
one just has to head to Colmar.
A chocolate croissant and coffee, at a very French cafe, with locals was a perfect beginning.
Several stands were selling must-have souvenirs.
(you have to buy this stuff, so one can remember your travels fondly
and have something to dust or wear)
Tom decided on a nice yellow shirt
and me a hat and coffee mug.
(I have a tacky mug collection)
Fans were buzzing around cobblestone streets,
waiting and watching for cyclists to arrive.
An hour before starting time, a parade of sponsors geared fans up.
Quickly it seemed they were off, and another marathon leg was underway.
On average a course of 160 - 200 km is covered by racers in a five to six hour time period.
The sunny Saturday weather was a relief from yesterday's rain.
