With no plans to go to the Prologue today, I bike commuted and was hanging out at the office when I decided I had better things to do.... So I stomped it home, took a quick shower, grabbed a peach, 2 waters and 1 beer and headed to watch some bike racers....

I should have been better about checking my settings, but I was RUSHED(made it with about 5 minutes to spare) and was there for such a short time(needed to pick up my daughter)....it is what it is....

Prologue was at Utah Olympic Park....VERY short clime(1.4 miles) that averaged 7%.....

I decided that I would check and see if we had any dopers yet.....

Nope...a few pics as I made my way to the course...

Bobsled or ski jumping anyone?

Ian Burnett took a fall around turn one, but picked up a new bike and kept riding.

Super nice shots. That Cervelo C5a looks so nice, and the derosa. Brajkovič appears to have misplaced his arms and replaced them with two pieces of spaghetti.
