Tour de France pt.1

I'll provide a more detailed post later today, but right now I'm at an internet cafe about 100m from the start line of the Tour de France in Rotterdam, Holland. I've been here all day and am just killing a little time waiting for Cadel Evans to take off for his time trial. After positioning at the BMC team tent for about an hour it was very cool to briefly meet him and get his autograph a couple of hours ago on my tour cap after he walked over to a group of about 10 Aussies. It definitely pays to wear the Aussie flag because he came over to ask where all of his national comrades were from.
This is the second coolest sporting event I've ever seen (nothing beats the 1990 AFL Grand Final). Back to watch the race ...
