Amgen in Lodi? Not without a lot of work!
Even if you are like me and don't follow sports, you most likely
know that the Amgen Tour of California started this past Saturday
in Sacramento. It is everywhere.
Event organizers tout the Amgen tour as "America's most
important cycling competition" and a "world class race." The
eight-day race is a Tour de France-style cycling road race which
takes place over a 750-mile course from Sacramento to Escondido.
Each day the race begins in a new city and ends in a new city.
