A few of the photos I
took at the SF Grand Prix Sunday, September 14th. Descriptions
to come shortly! --Mike--
Outside the headquarters hotel, everyone is waiting for a glimpse of
Lance.
Telekom's Vinokourov, 3rd place
at this year's Tour de France, smiling for the camera before the
start.
A bit of fun & games in the Celebrity race.
The pack heading up Broadway, shortly after passing the start/finish
area.
The return towards the start/finish area, heading over a small rise
on Columbus. This is one of the best areas to find a cafe and
watch the race while eating lunch. Unfortunately, killer pasty
options too!
US Postal's Victor
Hugo Pena having a not-so-nice-time up Taylor.
More fun & games, this
time on stilts. Not as impressive as the young kids climbing
on bikes though!
A rare Lance sighting,
riding behind Ekimov (Lance is the 3rd rider on the right).
Gord Fraser (in green)
rode strongly, but check out the guy behind him in the next two
frames...
Zig to the left...
...Zag to the right!
Repeat many times until you (hopefully) reach the top of the hill!
Don't try this at
home; racing cars up steep hills should be left to the professionals
like Eneas Freyre, of the LeMond Fitness team.
