2007-07-20 The Tour De France comes through St Etienne.

Nathanial and lilium, waiting for the Tour to get going!

Apparently at this point we have already missed the 'freebies' caravan and it will be a full 2 hours before the bikes flit through.....

The motley crew from Cailho

further down the road the Le Sahuc mob !!

AND here they come, the two front riders a good 10 mins before the next one and then 5 mins before the whole bunch rides through faster than we can take pictures, but we have video !!
