The Horn Squad Returns - Amgen Tour of California

I have been on hiatus for way to long. I blame the job not the baby, who by the way got her picture taken at the SF GP with Katheryn Curry the women's national champion, of course I can't find the pic anymore which is killing me! I will post here when i find it again.

The horn squad turned out in force for the Amgen Tour of California. It was 10 minutes from work so a couple of us went over with our cowbells to raise a ruckus. It was a beautiful February day and we freaked out a couple of the riders. We got these totally funny looks as if... "What the hell is going on". It was seriously the middle of nowhere east bay nor cal (union city to be exact) and there are like a couple hundred people with cowbells standing around in the middle of a work day for almost the whole route.

The Amgen tour is deffinately worth checking out. My only complaint is that the live feed web feed was down the first two days. The Grassy Knoll project, fan community generated video and pics, is pretty sweet idea...a totally good community application.
