Tour de France 2015 passed my parents' home today (pic heavy)
on: July 06, 2015, 10:36:50 PM
Like I said in the tittle, todays stage in the Tour de France past the house of my parents (about 5km from my home), so I took out our mountainbikes and me and my boys went over there to watch the show  8).

Here are the pics:

As always, my Swisschamp was there with me :D:




First there was the publicity caravan:






















Then there were these guys, a group of 4 which escaped from the peleton:










And about 2 minutes later the peleton was there.










I was a bit surprised to find the yellow jersey 500m behind the peleton, between the cars, so these were the best pics I took of him ...






And then they were gone ...

 :drool: Great pictures. One day I will get over across the pond to watch the Tour. I would love to ride around on one of the marshal motorcycles.
