The Tour basically begins with a bunch of crap. Essentially an hour before the time trials were to begin, all the sponsors and various groups drove down the course and threw out heaps of crap.At first you would think that there would be something good, and you get all excited - but I guess since the budget has to last the entire month of July for the Tour - you just get stuff.
Probably the best thing we got was a personal cellphone screen cleaner and a bag of pretzels - yup, nothing that I'm going to be able to sell on EBay.
