5 GROUPS OF MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS

Now a SEVEN times Tour De France Winner.... Lance Armstrong wearing the ' World Champion ' jersey.

'This jersey was won by Lance in the 1993 world championships. This is the 1994 version that he raced in.

Here we see Lance at the top of a hill in South Harting, UK..

This is a ' crop ' of another photo in my Tour De France set.

My days Tour De France extravaganza began at Bishops Waltham where i photographed the riders and indeed managed to get a few shots of the French police, the Gendarmerie.

Once the riders had passed i gathered my gear together and whilst the Tour proceeded north to Basingstoke i travelled East to South Harting and, having found a suitable vantage point ( walking right to the top of this hill ) i again waited for the mass of riders in the most famous cycle race in the world.

Prior to the riders appearing you have the passing of the cavalcade which is a gigantic mass of vehicles for supporting the Tour and Sponsers vehicles too.

Within these vehicles people were throwing all kinds of products to the crowds.

It was quite a day.

Check out the rider... the rider in the white jersey here is the famous Lance Armstrong of the Motorola team.

The 5th stage ( 115 miles, Portsmouth to Portsmouth ) of the 1994 Tour De France.

This photo was taken at South Harting on 7th July 1994.

I managed to catch the race twice on this day. Once at Bishops Waltham and then , whilst the race tarvelled north, i drove east to South Harting to watch it all over again.

It was a great day.
