Ode to Tour de France

The 2013 Tour de France wraps up today.  This image wraps up the symbolism of what it all means to me.  A sleek image of a heads-down bicycle racer representing the dedicated and world premier bike racers racing through France for weeks.  Combined with a stationary bike, parked, helmet hanging off the handlebars while its rider is enjoying a casual meal in a nearby air-conditioned restaurant--not paying much attention to the race except for the headlines the last few days as the race wraps up.  Yep, there are different types of folks--those who participate with gusto, those who stand-by and watch the action and those who just don't even pay attention.
