Le Tour Stage 10 and Chambery

We Were able to get a spot by the Stage 10 start line in the morning and watch the riders line up for the race; the maiou juene and the maiou polka-dot led the race out of town, as per tradition.

We took the rest of Wednesday to see a little of Chambery and Chill - the heat was oppressive, particularly as we had come down from several days in the mountains. We saw a local chatau (Le Chatau des Ducs de Savoie) that is being restored, and the exposition there, chilled out in some Cafe's and watched some French television in the hotel.

We got an early night ready for the ride to Lyon the next day.Read more
