This is my first time so I'd like to get pictures and autographs and stuff.
My plan is to watch the first riders start and then work my way to Coit tower and watch the favorites finish up the big hills to the tower. Hopefully my wife and daughter will be up for the walk. hehe!
Then maybe next year I can volunteer!
Thanks!

This is what I did last year; it's a great way to see the race. I got to just below the tower just as the race was finishing and heard from Johan Bruyneel that Levi had won it. Very cool. If you get there early, a lot of the riders warm up at team buses beforehand. The big protour teams are mobbed, but the US based riders are open to talking to you if you time it right. You can talk photos the whole time.
