I'm not, but I have a student that is racing both Saturday in the TT and Sunday in the RR. I wished him good luck when I talked to him yesterday.

I made it too! It was FAN-tastic! I'm definitely going to paying more attention to the season next year. It was something else. I was on the other end of the course, down close to the finish line. I got there about 1:30 and stayed to the bitter end. I took a few pics, but I've never had much luck posting pics here, but if I can, I will.

They had a kid's bike race that was a lot of fun. They said that a lot of the pro racers had kids in it. I really enjoyed that.

yep, I had a good time there as well. I hung out downtown at a few different spots as they came around. Mostly was at Falls and E. Broad. They come through that intersection 2x each lap, so a pretty good spot to watch from.

Thanks for the pics, WP. Enjoyed those. I'll try to get some of mine up here later, but not sure when I'll get the chance.
