tour de france

I went with a few friends last Sunday to see the tour de France. Biking is quite a nice spectator sport: you stand there, watch the bikers go by for about five minutes, and that's it.

The bikers went by at a pace of 30 miles an hour, first a little clump (20 riders?) then a huge pack with most of the rest.

It was very exciting, and very quick. I filmed it with my camera.

I also enjoyed the people watching there: the group of 3 adults and four lassies (um, I mean collies), the woman waving a both a French and German flag, and then people regarding my group curiously: who are these foreigners speaking bad french and being really loud?
