I've wondered what it would be like to be a spectator for the sport.
You pick a spot.
You sit.
You wait.

Sometimes you have a tv and you watch the event as they near you.
They go by, you go crazy (sometimes running near them, but not touching them).
Then you can stick around as every cyclist goes by or you can get in a car and try to get further down to watch them go by again.

Repeat daily for weeks.
I suppose if I had the money and time, it'd be interesting.

And they go through gorgeous areas.
