A shout-out to Bikestyle tours. Bikestyle is a Brisbane-based touring company that offers cycling tours in places like Australia (Tour Down Under), Europe (TdF, Giro, Vuelta), and USA (Tour of CA). It's a fun and organized way to see the professional tours in person and ride the courses with other avid cyclists.
Leading our tour group was Peter Forbes, tour leader from Brisbane. In addition to being a good tour leader, Peter is also a strong rider.
Lorain Graham, tour support from Brisbane, a former pro rider and great rider and climber.
Spencer Kearney bike mechanic from Brisbane, and also a strong rider.
Pat Jonker from Adelaide is a former pro rider who has many cycling accomplishments, including a win at the Tour Down Under and several finishes at the TdF. Pat was a real pleasure to ride and tour with, had great stories to tell, a good sense of humor, and offered timely encouragement and support as we slogged up the mountains.
Jan and Marc managed the tour van and bus, respectively. Super nice guys, experienced and professional, and a real pleasure to be with on the tour.
Also on tour at the beginning was Bruno and his wife Els. Bruno and Els managed the tour van and provided great support to the tour riders.
