Catching up with Tour de France

 Catching up - at LeTour de France

Long time, no blog, right? Zio Lorenzo left his laptop at home so no blogging until he returned from the north. We'll catch up over the next few days.


Bologna -this tower is leaning!


We wanted to see a race up the San Luca climb for years so why not when LeTour comes to town?


It was as epic as we thought!


W Magro!








Ben Healy's father was there to support his son. The kid's a real trier, whether his exploits end up working or not, they enliven most of the races. What would you be if you didn't try? A robot like that Danish guy?

We also ran into Dag Otto Lauritzen doing a TV spot. We couldn't get him to slow down for a photo, just a handshake after Zio called out "Hey Lauritzen! I remember when you were IN this race!" which had him cross the road and let Heather remind him of the daze in Santa Barbara, CA when he was up for a sprint and she agreed to take him on!

From here we rented a car and drove up to our old HQ in Piedmont for a few weeks of enjoying the hills of Monferrato. More on that soon.
