Livestrong ChalkBot

While we were driving the course today scouting a location to picnic, we ran into the Nike / Livestrong chalk bot team. We stopped to grab a few photos of their work and spoke with the friendly crew. They have quite an impressive operation, literally have bot that is chalking tens of thousands of messages across miles of France. The guys said their biggest problem was finding the space they needed to chalk the road with around 1500 new messages coming in each day. They're hoping to chalk 100,000 messages by the end of the Tour. Don't be dismayed, follow the above link and send in your message -- we might just see it on the road (in which case we'll take a photo).
