Amgen Tour Video Online
I've posted two short videos of the Amgen Tour of California as it rolled through Castro Valley. Specifically, this was on the sharp turn from Crow Canyon Road (southbound) to East Castro Valley Boulevard (eastbound). (Here's a map.)
One pack of three riders came by, and then the rest of the group came through about five minutes later.
Technical notes: these were shot with a Palm Zire 72 handheld, so the quality is poor, and the sound didn't come along when the files were converted to Quicktime with VLC. Heck, they probably won't even play for you, but give 'em a look just in case. Please let me know if you were able to view them.
Links to the videos are here.
