The Tour is underway for a week now. So far, too many crashes. In the past, we normally witness one or two big crashes. This year, we seem to be witnessing a lot of minor crashes. Many of the Tour favorites have been abandoned. Yesterday's stage is a bit crazy too. Top GC contenders crashed out at the front when the Omega-Lotto was driving the descend at an incredible pace to catch the Thomas Voeckler group. Then, a French TV media car knocked down 2 of the breakaway riders because the driver was trying to avoid hitting the tree. He could stop. No, he decided to veer to his right and pass the breakaway group. I have been watching the Tour for the past 6 years, I have never read and saw things like that to happen.
Looking forward to this coming Sunday race, Lou Maltese Memorial, in Central Park. I think I should shoot there more often. The race there does not get enough coverage. The loop is twice the length as the Prospect Park and so I need to sort out a new shooting strategy. I would probably need to wake up at 4am and out the door before 5am. And to get to the park by 6am. :)
