I got a chance to get along to the 2013 Tour de Perth on Sunday to catch the racing around the Perth NRS Perry Lakes Course and in particular to cheer on the Satalyst Giant Racing Team who did well coming third on the day.
The Perry Lakes course is a great one to go along to catch the racing as the riders come past around ever 10 to 12 minutes so plenty of action and a great chance to see possible future great Australian riders in action.
Anyway I grab a few photos from around the start-finish line and at the end of the start-finish line straight along with a couple of videos to try to get a taste of the day. Hope you enjoy.

Great Action – Thanks for the photos – you get the feel of the atmosphere of the day – love the work you do
Thanks Sue. Whilst I am not sure my photography, can you call it that, was anything remotely special it was a great couple of hours of racing. Pity it was not more widely promoted and supported by local businesses. It could have been a great day of celebration.
