A good excuse for Zero owners in various places to meet up!
"Zero Motorcycles will be included in the support fleet for the Big Bear Lake Time Trial stage of this year's Amgen Tour of California. Zero said the electric motos are ideal for race support because they don't produce exhaust or noise that could disturb athletes and harm the environment."

It's cool to see them go by, but the finish line of each stage is probably the most worthwhile place to visit, has a festive atmosphere, big screens, and announcers. With fast transportation able to cut through traffic, it's possible to visit various places on the route, see them go by several times. I did that in San Jose one year.
