They're not as good as Fuzzy's, but here are some of my shots from the prologue.
This couple weren't racing the Tour du France, or going anywhere near it. Rather, they were touring Holland on a pair of Choppers! Seen here about to disembark the Rotterdam ferry.
Just as I reached this town, I felt an urgent something stirring down inside of me ...
I stayed with friends in Maastricht and rode the 30km down to Liege each day. On the Saturday, we tagged along behind three guys on standard Dutch roadsters. They were only doing about 16k-18ph but we were impressed when they formed an echelon into the wind. We were even more impressed when they started a rotating pace line! Two of them are father and son, ex-racers both.
On the day of the prologue, we installed ourselves about 2km from the finish, inside the circuit and outside a little bar which mainly seemed to have Congolese people inside it, and which had set up a TV to watch the race. When we saw someone outside who we were interested in, we'd dash inside to see how they finished.

Alex Txurruka (never heard of him, I just like the photo)

The next day, we just had time to watch the start before I caught my train to Zeebrugge for the ferry home. Here's the front of the race in the neutralised zone
...and here they are again
