Last year BlackBird Images photographed some of the stages, and we plan to do so again this year. (To see a gallery of images from last year's race, click here.) Tour Director Matthew Butterman says he expects the number of cyclists to grow from about 90 last year to 150 in 2007, which is the maximum number of riders allowed. If you get a chance, check out the race if it comes through your area.

Congratulations to the Tour of Shenandoah organizers - in 2007 they're the Tour of Virginia. The scope of the race has been expanded: The six-day tour, running April 24-29, branches out of the Valley into two new cities, Lynchburg and Charlottesville.
