Thousands of people lined up for the Amgen Prologue tour that ran through Downtown Sacramento Saturday morning to see some of the biggest names in cycling which included Lance Armstrong. Over a hundred police officers were on hand to control the crowds, but no arrest or drama was made. Many roads were also blocked off which kept traffic around Downtown Sacramento extremely slow. The Sacramento Convention and Visitors Bureau estimated with all these people in town it will bring in $8.5 million in revenue.
