Hi everyone

Tomorrow afternoon Mom and I will see the Tour come through the little village of Monieux, which is near Sault, and also near Mont Ventoux, if you are watching the Tour on Versus.

We expect to see the peloton come through at 2 PMish, which is 8 AM EST. If you TIVO it, who knows, maybe you will see me.

I wish Lance were winning, but, he's done really well and I'm glad he's back out there again!

Will you be wearing a chicken costume!?
 
Hadn't planned on a chicken costume. We have to wear something that can be worn on the TGV heading north a few hours after they go through...

I should have mentioned we will also see them in Paris Sunday, but, you'll never find us on TV then so don't even bother. Monieux is likely to be deserted, since Mont Ventoux will have 600,000 people on it. Give or take.

That's great..enjoy!
 
6 hours to go... yippee! I've always wanted to see this.

My guess is we will be "outside" the village, along the side of the road. Hopefully in some shade somewhere.
 
Har har. LOL

We are standing on a side of a mountain right now. Yes, this is written w my berry.

They shd be going through in abt 45 mins or so...
 
Make sure you get some good swag from the publicity caravan.
