Tour de France

Today like other days we woke up in France. But today we went to see the Tour de France.

The stage (stage 6) was run from Aix-en-Provence to Montpellier (176.5 km), the winner of the stage was German Andre Greipel who finished the race in under 4hrs (3h 59 02).

This is where we watched the race, on the D17, just north of the start of racing, which happens several km after the rolling start.


We waited 1 hour to see 45 seconds of biking.
Some other people also waited.
We were waiting at the top of a fairly large hill so we got to see the riders, for a long time (about 30 seconds)

video goes here once figure out how to load it.
