A big thank you to Ken Conley for sharing his Tour of California photos. He'll be up on Mount Hamilton for today's Stage 3. It's cold and rainy in the South Bay right now. While race officials have an alternate route ready, weather forecasters don't expect snow or ice today. The inclement weather also hasn't stopped many fans who are already lining up on Sierra Road to watch the cyclist zoom into San Jose this afternoon.

  3. I agree, last year's angel was much cuter.

    And I do believe this year's is Polish or something like that.

  6. The Angel seen at this year's Tour of California is from Spain, but I have seen her at the Vuelta and Giro too. She has been around awhile. I love her! She has spunk--the last girl seemed kind of plastic. But yes, everyone to there own bike geometry....

  8. I prefer the former angel, Jana Ireton, to the 2008 angel. I also believe Jana looks more angelic.
