Did I miss read this post, are the pictures suppose to be of the actual TdF, or our own during the challange? Sorry if I hijacked this thread by posting my own pictures.

KJ Day 1 I saw a picture that Yen put up, so this idea for a picture comes from him.

KJ Day 2

I couldnt figure out photo bucket or the other one, so I just got a free website and upload my pictures there. Then I just put the url in my posts here.

Well, only one of my picks made points today, Marcel Kittel. I would have made more if Contador didnt crash. Hope his arm will be ok.

Awesome picture. I did one similar in St. Augustine FL where they had a fish eye mirror looking at a light house.

thumbs up on the jersey

Ill keep an eye out for it.

I really like the Live Tracking feature for when I go ride my Mountain Bike. I can keep the screen open on my PC so my Wife can see where I am. I told her if the blip isnt moving for a long period of time to call me to see if I'm ok.... O BTW that was one of my recent changes as a result from my mechanicals that caused me…

Already signed up. With the amount of ppl tho, I would have to work really hard to get a jesery!!

lol thanks for the picture veloman! sure hope no one will throw any rotten tomoatos at you during your ride!

do you have any selfies you want to post?

the star marks the spot I had to stop. Soooo close.

Real easy to get to the trail head from I-10. Would be good to do in the fall as well. Here is the mapmyride course http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/edit/462066314/

337 is good with me for sure.

It’s funny to me how simple the solution can be, but eluded me. I have always had the mindset to ride and not stop, like I'm in some race or something. So stopping at a convenience store never occurred to me. I would be concerned about someone making off with the bike as Archon stated, I would have to keep a close eye on…

Ha Ha thank you for this Archon, i might have to forgo the beer cans tho.

Thank you, thank you very much.

Im available to be added.

not minutes, but miles.

Joined the second one as well.

I read the excerpt and down loaded the full article to my ipad so I can read it later. Thanks for posting. I have to say I was a huge Armstrong fan, I still apprecate him, but I was also let down quite a bit as I'm sure many were. I was really let down when finding out how wide spread doping was not just for Armstorng but…

I think an hybrid or even a cruzer would be fine as long as the cruzer had some gearing. I would lean toward the hybird though. Slow is an awesome way to start. maybe around the block a couple times etc. Mapmyride.com is one phone app (out of a few on the market) that you can keep track of your rides and fitness. It also…

I never did any fantasy xxx, dont know how it works, but I am willing to learn. could you do a brief explanation on how it works. I would be willing to give it a go.

Picked up a new Red, White and Blue Jersey, and also a pair of Oakley polarized RadarLocks. One of the best bike purchases I have done in a long time. A lot of my rides are just before sunset, so I dont need to take a pair of glasses that need a lense change, or a second pair to change when the sun goes down. With these,…

I think commuters that bike to work are the best!! :smile:

When I lived in a town next to New Orleans, I rode my bike to work. going from my house was to far, about 30 miles one way, although I did this ride, I only did it a couple times. so instead, I found a place to park about half way. I would drive and park, then ride to work from there. that worked out real good for me. I…

When I was in Denver yesterday, REI was advertizing that they are putting Breakfast stations all over, I thought that was a neat thing to do.

A quick trip to a local bike shop, and my bike is ready to go. Wanted to give a quick shout out to Kyle at Alpha Bicycle Company on Arapahoe Rode that got me in and out in under 5 minutes! Ok here are some more pictures from my ride today. I must say, it was quite enjoyable to ride in Colorado. I will be coming back at the…
