Tour of Utah 2010 Stage 2 Start

I didn't have time to go watch the finish of Stage 2 of the Tour of Utah at the top of Mount Nebo so I settled for watching the start at Thanksgiving Point, which isn't far from work.

Walking to the start the Xango van drove by tossing out freebies. I scored some socks.



The dignitaries rolled out, including Bob Roll (in the yellow helmet).



The racers look WAY too casual at the start.



And they're off.



They did two laps around a small circuit before heading south for Mount Nebo.





The weather has turned ugly since the start. Raining hard here at work (Bluffdale). Reports of strong wind gusts hitting the racers. And this photo taken from the caravan doesn't look good:
