La Caravane du Tour de France et les miniatures du monde du cyclisme. Cycling miniatures of the Tour de France and other cycling races. La Carovana del Tour de France, del Giro...
I had a dream... to find someone able to "give" me some photos of the TOUR DOWN UNDER Cars and Caravan. I can say that the year 2007 wishes are nearly completed. Here are for you some nice pictures from people who were in Adelaïde last week.
Special thanks to Kent Inverarity. You can have a look to its photos full size here : http://www.flickr.com/photos/84126968@N00/
Please have a look to his other photos (sunsets, trees, waterfall...) and you will have a free trip to Australia !
Let's begin the overview with motorcycles :
A TV Yamaha motorcycle, looks like if Laurent Jalabert was there ! - Photo : copyright K. Inverarity

Just like the Tour de France, TV on Yamaha and Police on BMW that's what we can call the "Mondialisation" ! - Photo : Photo : copyright K. Inverarity

The neutral service is proposed by Shimano with this Mitsubishi Lancer SW car, changing from our yellow Mavic Skoda's isn't it ? - Photo : Photo : Cyleigh

Big cars on the advertising caravan like this one which, I think, is a Cadillac ? - Photo : Photo : copyright K. Inverarity

Teams are not going on the opposite side of the earth with their own cars. They are all equipped with HOLDEN (from GM group - nearly same cars as OPEL in Europe). I think those ones are HOLDEN Commodore SW. Photo : Photo : copyright K. Inverarity
To finish, let's have a look to the Small Laurent Brochard with its SA-Lotteries jersey :
