Title: Tour De France 2013............Proud Jayco Owner
Post by: Topender on July 06, 2013, 02:20:49 AM: I'm a very keen cyclist bordering on fanatic. I race both road and mountain bikes and have a soft spot for the Orica Green Edge cycling team. After watching stage 6 of the TDF I waited for the Green Edge Backstage Pass video in anticipation as I knew it would be special following on from the previous two stages. To say I was proud to be an Aussie a Cyclist a Green Edge supporter and most of all a Jayco owner is an understatement. I dare you to watch this video link and disagree Tour de France 2013 - Stage 6 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxrDGgtVWhM#ws) Even if you don't follow cycling you must admit that is pretty special.

I'm a little jealous of you westerners, your time zone is a bit more tour friendly than ours.

Well timed post! I was watching this morning's highlights and thought there was a lack of tour discussion here on the forum...

Could be a late night tonight with the mountain stage nicely timed for a Saturday night. :D

Green Edge in yellow for a fourth day tomorrow, and all going well Cadel can smash Frume and Contatador in the hills, pick up the time and the

Yellow and carry it all the way to Paris :cup:

The look on the drivers face and the head in the hands said it all.

Classic!
