Well i went to the Tour of California and Saw some bike racing. This here is George Hincapie winner of the final stage. He did not win the overall race though, that was Mr. Leiphiemer. Poor Levi as of this point will not be riding in the Tour de France but I don't feel too bad for him. I went to California to see the boys of Kelly Benefit Strategies-Medifast Team ride. They were a late wild card entry into America's premier event for bike racing. A bunch of Pro Tour teams were there and the field was stacked but these boys were up to the challenge. They rode well and we got to cheer them on along the way. The Alps it is not, but we still wrote on the road.
Jenni the Rents(super cool slang for Parents BTW (not so super cool slang for "by the way")) and I travelled about the coast seeing some cool spots in Cali like Solvang and the Pacific Coast Highway. The PCH is cool cause you drive for hours and on't get sick of being in the car unless you have to sit next to Jenni the whole time!! Not really we all had a good time. The second to last day finished in with a three lap circut and we stood at the 1 km to go marker.
The boys in green did good but not really "in the money" as they say. The Last few pictures are Reid in the TT Bryce "the Byrd" Mead and the three true icons of cycling Phil, Paul and Bobke

Really? Paul and Phil were there! That is the coolest part, I think. Looks like it was fun and plus you got to hang with Jen and the rents!
