The third annual Amgen Tour of California kicked off in Palo Alto on Sunday. The world's top professional teams and cyclists were represented. I went to see the Prologue on Sunday and the big mountain stage 3 on Sierra Road on Wednesday. It was great to see the cyclists up close and personal, as I have followed a lot of these riders in the Tour de France for a number of years. Wow, these guys are incredible athletes, from their blazing fast speed in the 2.1 mile time trial prologue and their phenomenal climbing ability up Sierra Road in the mountain stage.
Check out pictures from the two stages. Can you recognize any of the big names?
