and the winner is

Andre Griepel. Watched the first stage of the Tour Down Under today from the comfort of our lounge. One of our Aussies, Caleb Ewan came second !!

I am looking forward for the European tours to start. I particularly never miss the Giro d'Italia (Tour of Italy) and the Tour de France. I have been following them for at least 50 years or so. Andre Griepel is a great cyclist and of the Aussie riders I remember Cadel Evans most.

@sangwann we love the Tour de France. The poor riders have 41c temps here on Thursday and Friday so they may have to shorten the course.

thanks all. Day 2 today and a hot 37 so the lounge was a good place to be a spectator. An Aussie won today!

The lounge is a great vantage point isn’t it. I love your collage.

@susiemc @robz we have had a great time watching the Tour. So much better than having to stay up half the night to watchTour de France
