STAGE 6

      The starting gun fires and the riders take off for the final stage.  Now our job is to make it to the finish line as quickly as possible.  My advice to pedestrians, dogs and slow drivers is to stay off the route that takes the entorage of a stage race from the start line to the finsh.  We are all in a hurry and may just run you down if it suits us.  All the area cops are assigned to the race so its a free for all.  Remember that if you get any real cool shots of this stage or have a comment to pass on to the peanut gallery please send it to bicycling@coolbicyling.com.
