El Tour de Tucson

Today all of Tucson was ready for the big bike race--El Tour de Tucson. Tucson is a bike friendly place--some call it a biking mecca. It's not surprising, then, that a big road race with 9,000 participants from all over the country is hosted here. Participants choose from fun rides to races of 35, 66, 80, or 109 miles. It not just exciting for those who ride. Participants raise money for different charities. People here talk alot about the race. Always wanting to try out my technology, I took a few pictures to share. The 66 mile race started at Udall Park, which is a short walk from our house.


Here is a photo of Sabino Canyon Road across from Udall Park. I always enjoy the view.
