San Francisco Grand Prix/T-Mobile 2003

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.
