I thought I saw some white Zero's too, but I had a doubt because of the Specialized helmet. I figured he had Specialized glasses too.

Yeah, I saw those. The other guy I questioned who had them was from Confidis. Oh, and Georgie wore his usual White RJ, though I think it looked like Transitions lenses (which would be a stock colorway).

Georgie made it into the Johnnie today. Now he has to hold it for another few weeks.

Scorecard: Oakley riders have won both stages and hold the overall lead.

TDF is always a showcase for Oakley.

George H: Transition RJ
Thor: Gold Pro M w/ Gold Irid.
Stuey O'Grady, Salvo, and others in the Pro M Carbon Fibre. Cool to note Salvo wearing Transition M Frame lens...

Many top shelf O athletes rocking Polished White Zeros in Prologue in both Ducati and Zero L lens configs. Most had G30 lenses. Other than Floyd (and Robbie M in the Prologue) most O athletes that wear Zero do so with the Ducati lens. Liam Kileen (a World Cup mtn bike pro) has many of these with including Clear, Gold Clear, H I Persimmon, and others.

Bobby J wearing the Gold Clear as usual in the Prologue in his Rx. Gold Clear is most likely what the previous poster was speaking of. Gold Clear is a very cool lens!

Should Oakley be considered doping? They obviously give you an advantage over all the non-oakley riders? :)

one of the disco riders was wearing something a bit different, only caught a side view as he walked past a camera, but looked like frameless wires, but with a thicker, sculpted arm (and they werent 00's....

A friend of mine has vip passes for a couple of the stages, ill see what he can get.....

Graham watsons website is also good for O spotting at the tour, as he has daily updates of just about everyone....
