Amgen!

You all must know by now that we are serious cycling aficionados--our bike-racing days are mostly behind us (with the exception of an occasional hair that creeps up somewhere and causes me to humiliate myself) but nothing gets us more excited than going to a world class bike race. This weekend, the Amgen Tour of California arrived in Northern CA, the most prestigious bike race in the U.S. and guess what? They rode right up our road! Passing through our town of Auburn, crossing the bridge that we use for our commute and heading through the foothills down into Sacramento. Of all the great pictures we could have taken--Shane and myself with Jasmine in her trailer, riding the race course beforehand with all the cheering fans on the streets--this is all we got. One lousy picture. It was a great day, and if any of you ever have a chance to spectate a world class cycling event, we would highly recommend it.
