Three Riders in Turn, San Jose – Amgen 2008 Tour of California. San Jose, California. February 20, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell.
I arrived too late for the finish of the February 20 Modesto to San Jose stage of the 2008 Amgen Tour of California. As I ran toward the race route through downtown San Jose I saw the first two riders go by a couple hundred feet ahead of me. Aw, darn! Anyway, I set up at the first corner I came to and photographed the rest of the pack as they came through the second-to-last turn of the race.

Ridgetop Oak Tree (monochrome). Calero Hills, California. March 18, 2007. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
This noble, though slightly tipsy, old oak lives on the top of a ridge I like to visit in the Calero Hills (Calero Park) south of San Jose, California.
