I'm going to try and blog our trip via email in Europe.
I'm not sure about pictures though.

This is the first time we are doing an extended bike tour, so
wish me luck on the hills and I'll holler at Lance and the Peleton for y'all!

Back from our Tour and it was Fantastic.
Great Riding and
Great Scenery, especially in the Pyrenees
We rode some of the Tour mountains and the routes and watched 3 stages along with the finish in Paris.
The excitement around the Tour was incredible. Lance and Team were very accessible. I even got on the Discovery bus in Pau thanks to a nice personal assistant of Lance's.

Here are a few shots.

Oh yeah, and my hubby survived the Running of the Bulls!

Wowwww...That must have been a trip of a lifetime.
Love the pictures.. Close enough to give George a hug?
I am full of envy.... :rolleyes:

Picture #2 is not George. :confused:

[swlsue]

Whoops, my mistake - wishful thinking. :rolleyes:

He was wearing a #4 or #8.
4 was George.
8 was Ruberia. Do you think it was him? I was not sure.

Here are 5 more of the riders as they pedaled to the Discovery Bus.

Check and make sure this is Sheryl Crow. I just assumed it was.

The other picture is from the Marie Blanc, Col Soulor and Col Aubisque day.
It was quite the riot out there.
