I watched the Tour in person 4 times. I spent probably $40 TOTAL and that was to park and then buying food at Solvang.
Aside from when Lance was racing, I don’t think it ever had enough hype to attract significant amount of out of town visitors. Watching it this year on TV it was sad to see how empty the finishing chutes were.
I’m guessing the majority of Californians had no clue the race was even going on the past 5+ years.
