We in media van #3 are all about working hard and having fun which seems to be the same motto as many of the teams and riders we have had the fortune to travel with over the past week. It’s day six for the relay teams and day nine for the solo men’s teams and they certainly have been working hard. So we took the opportunity to pass some fun onto the riders today. First, Ryandonned hawaiian leis and carried a red rake (it was supposed to be a pitchfork - we were going for Tour de France devil costume - best we could do at the dollar store). Ryan ran alongside Team Summit rider David Ophel (photo)and got a big smile from David. Then we dangled a beer can on a string in front of solo rider Holger Roethig. We think he found his "happy place". And finally tempting Team FARA's John Lockwood with powdered donuts. We're pretty sure he still has powdered sugar on his face ;-)
