Another Event in the Rain

Just by chance, I was able to catch the end of the Women's Cycling Road Race late this afternoon.  The race resulted in Great Britain's first medal of the Olympics.

Since the race was run over the streets in London, a ticket wasn't required.   When I happened upon the race course, I didn't have my normal camera gear with me.  I did have a great point-and-shoot camera with me (thanks for the loan, Mitch!) and I was able to get the shot below.

In case you don't recognize it, that's Buckingham Palace in the background.
