Me vs the Tour of California

The proposed plan: Shoot photos at Bonny Doon at 2 PM, then race by bike to the finish line and hope to beat the pros there for another set of photos at about 4 PM. Who thinks I can make it?

The Amgen Tour of California 2012 will hit Santa Cruz County early this afternoon and make the turn up Bonny Doon Road. I may make my own race of the Tour by biking from Bonny Doon to the Stage finish in Aptos and (hopefully) beating the pros to the finish line. Do you think I can make it?

Your Amgen Tour of California photos

I’ve started a Google Plus Page for the Amgen Tour of California. Ping me if you’d like to post your photos, commentary, links, etc to that page. It’s a decent way to get a wider audience for your work. I’ll need your email address to send the official Page Invite.

The 2012 Amgen Tour of California pro cycling race begins this Sunday, May 13 in Santa Rosa. And I just realized I missed the 1 PM kickoff press conference. Drats.
