    Sure hope it doesn’t snow on this Amgen Tour like it did the last time. Weather a lot like todays would be perfect.

    This video was on the same day AMGEN was supposed to start. Giant team went big and cruised that day. The only ones I saw at the Y going toward Tahoe city, not to mention at a speed faster than I.
