I think I spotted Event on a motorcycle but not sure which bike he was on!

I was assigned to marshal next to the TV camera that shows the riders climbing up to Coit Tower and around the left bend (just before the Angel lady... you will probably see her). This lasted about 4 riders then they asked me to do a different task...

After the racers finish they had to go down a set of steps (about 50) then ride back to the start area. I got to assist the racers down the steps, carrying about 25 of their bikes!

I carried some Disco Trek's, BMC, Scott's, Cervelo, Mercxx, Javelin, and Giant. Those BMC and Scotts were amazingly light! The Cervelo was an incredible design!

Walked back down to the start area after the end of the race and made it in time to see Arnold hand out the jerseys. What a great morning!

Event, good luck the rest of the race. I'll see you out there on Tuesday near Sierra road.
