This was a very exciting day, as we get to climb Alpe d'Heuz, although some of the group had already done it a couple of days ago. First we had to bike down, which was a little hairy as there were so many people on course as well as traffic gojgn up and down, but nobody ever seems to get run over!
This is at Dutch corner, or switchback 7, these guys had been there for a few days and I guess hadn't slept that much but had drunk plenty!
I didn't stop much on the climb up, only once so I have just 1 photo from the ride up, we also had to be up there by a certain time before the race came through.
This was our viewing spot from the 3km to go banner, we got lunch here and watched the race on TV before it got to us!
But before that we got to cross the finish line one last time!

Andy and Frank
And to top it all off we got a helicopter ride to the resturant in Grenoble after the race
