Tour of California......

So will Armstrong go all out to win this or wil it just be a warm up to the Tour de France?

The largest cycling event in America, the 2009 Amgen Tour of California is a Tour de France-style cycling road race presented by AEG that challenges the world's top professional cycling teams to compete along a demanding, recently expanded, 750-mile course from Sacramento to Escondido from February 14-22, 2009.

I think that Lance is gonna support Levi in this race. As for the TDF I don't know what his plans are. They have a power-house of a team, but too 'leaders' can cause alot of problems. Look what happened with T-mobile back in the day, they didn't know who to support with Vino, Jan and Klodden all going for the win.....it didn't work out too well.

I think you have to care if there are a million people hanging around. Maybe that was an estimate but from my vantage point (the couch) there were a lot of diehards that turned out on a miserable day

So did they catch the guy who stole the Astana bikes?
What a bizarre story, you'd think they would have some serious security for the equipment trucks.

I don't think that they've found them yet....But they are pretty unique and shouldn't be too hard to spot. I'm not sure what you would do with them other than hide them in your basement?

Hey and how about Levi's ride yesterday? I didn't know he had it in him to be that agressive! It was AWESOME!
