Cycling in Lygon Street

Saturday was the final stage of the Jayco Sun Herald Tour, and the final stage was a 60km race around the street circuit of Carlton. It was an unreal day and the weather was really warm about 29degrees and approx 20,000 people turned out for the final stage. It was awesome to see the professional riders up close, and also the famous Australian Stuart OGrady, who rides for CSC team was the race leader and indeed ended up winning the race, i got pretty close up to him and took a photo - Hey Stu over here mate....
They absolutely fly, they ride so fast and I just loved it. Howie and i are going to Adelaide in January for the Tour Down Under, which is a professional race around SA, and also Lance Armstrong has come out of retirement (UNREAL) and will be racing. Cool huh, we are going to the final stage to see him.
Enjoy the photos and the video too
