Tour Down Under 2010

An interested observer of the Tour Down Under near Clare

Last month we went to stay with our daughter in Clare. We especially went to see the start of the 2010 Tour Down Under. The first stage of this year’s race started for the first time in the main street of Clare.

On our way to Clare the day before the race start we were amused by the various decorations people living along the route had prepared.

We were particularly amused by the “lady” in the photo above. Looks like she has had a terrible accident on her pink bike. Now she is trying to hitch a ride with one of the official riders in the race.

I wish her luck in that endeavour.
