      Your JC Higgins would be perfect to get to the race and around to different points on the course, so long as you rode on different streets than the pros race on.

      They were looking my way because their corner was right behind me. Racers find that their bikes will follow where their eyes are looking.

      It should because many of the teams and riders rode this year's Tour de France. Next year I'd like to watch the Tour in person.

    It is hard capturing a bicycle race. Well done.
