Last preparations under way for TDF2010

Bonjour from Lunel, Southern France headquarters for Discover France Adventures and Cycling Classics! It's 2 days til the Tour de France, and the team here is working hard to get ready for our tours. I'm Wendy, and I'll be keeping you up-to-date with all the cool adventures we'll be having along this year's Tour de France route. Lance Armstrong (Team Radioshack, of course) just announced this will be his last TdF, so it's bound to be a memorable, exciting, AND historic Tour. You may know that we usually will have three simultaneous TdF tours running: Self-guided, Domestique, and VIP. Thomas, Michel, and I will be on the VIP Alpes trip, which begins in exactly one week in the beautiful town of Annecy. Wait til you see photos of Lac d'Annecy; it's one of the most beautiful lakes I've ever seen (especially from the top of the Col when you're done climbing and are drinking a Coca Light!). But for now, we are getting everything ready for the trips: preparing bikes and gift bags and vans, etc, to make this the best Tour de France experience ever! You can check back here for daily reports and photos, or for quicker reading, follow me on twitter; I'm cyclefrance.
Ciao for now!

Wendy Chioji
