Tour de France - Actual Footage

OK, so this is a vantage point of the Tour de France that you will NOT see on TV. The audio is somewhat amusing considering I didn't realize just how close the cyclists would be to where I was filming.

We absolutely had a blast with the Tour de France ending stage in Redon!

Please note that when the peloton passed us we were at 320 meters from the finish line.  When they passed you can see that Thor Hushovd is wearing the yellow jersey and is out in front.  He ended up finishing 5th in this stage.  It defies comprehension to understand how 4 guys passed him at the speeds they were going.  By the way, the riders were completing a stage of 123 miles.
