The annual pictorial feature from Big Picture has been published for this year's Tour de France, including the now obligatory sunflower shot.

Pictures can be seen here.
 
Great shot of Didi 'El Diablo' Senft...nice to see he's getting sponsorship as well these days...
 
Super linky ST... :thumbs: ... thanx for that... :D


And haven't Cav and Bradders done us proud this year... :clap: ... great stuff... ;)



And believe it or not Cav's my personal hero... :thumbs: ... shame he is unlikely to make me even more proud by taking that covetted Green Jersey... :shrug: ... damn that Norwegian... :suspect:



Cannot believe it is nearly over already though... :shrug:







:p
 
Great set of images of a great TdF, the shot if Didi is incredible.
 
Great pics. Love the 'Devil' pic, although the helicopter spoils it a bit.

I like the rider's hair in #4. :lol:

It has indeed been a great tour this year. Bradley Wiggins has been a revelation. :eek: Never thought I'd see a British rider get so close to the top.

And it's not quite over yet. Cavendish can maybe get another win on the Champs Elysees. :thumbs: :D
 
As a complete "by the way" story - last year I had two half plans. One was to go to Barcelona to celebrate a big birthday and the second, when I learnt that Lance Armstrong was going to be back in the TDF, was to finally make the pilgramage and go and watch it, either in the Alps or the Pyranees. Both half plans would have sent me to snap-happy heaven. But the credit crunch kicked in and the economics of it all meant that both half plans got shelved many, many months ago.

So you can imagine how cheesed off I was to discover that, IN THE WEEK OF MY BIRTHDAY, the TDF actually bl**dy visited Barcelona and....passed within 100m of the apartment I would have stayed in! :bang: I must have upset someone in a previous life. It's not fair I tells ye... :(

True... and he probably will imhgo... :D ... but the Green Norwege has to finish too far behind Cav to lose the GJ... :suspect: ... or not finish at all... :naughty:



Fingers crossed... :D

It would be nice for Cavendish to win the Green Jersey, but I think Hushovd actually deserves to win it.

BTW I'm off to Barcelona on Tuesday. :) Hope for better weather than when the Tour visited. ;) :lol:

But what a stunning finish for Cav... :eek: ... :clap:



I am so envious... :naughty: ... yet to get to Barcelona... :shrug: ... enjoy as I'm sure you will and I too hope the weather shines better for you than the Tour... :D






:p
 
Fantastic pictures oh how I wish I'd been there instead of relying on Eurosport. Still wouldn't have got anywhere near the quality of those shots though.
