We rode our bikes down to view the finish. And of course Rolo rode one of his Dutch custom bikes, the orange one, and got lots of envied looks and comments. It was fun and exciting to be there, and a bit more relaxed than the other bike races we saw in Europe, of course not nearly as big.
Here's the bike used for the prologue - well our prologue anyway. A few days before, we participated in a charity event with Chevron. We collected money for the Heart and Stroke Foundation and then saddled up this bike with 28 of our close friends to ride around Prince's Island a few times, while shooting from water pistols at each other. At one point in the ride, we came face to face with a truck on the path and had to detour off the path shooting the gap through the trees. Ok, we skimmed a tree at one point, but no recordable injuries.
Lots of laughing...
