If any of you happen to have Outdoor Life Network and are at all interested in cycling, you should check out their daily coverage of the Tour of Spain. US Postal Service (Lance Armstrong's team) is currently occupying 3 spots in the top ten and look likely to put at least one member on the podium by the end of the race or even win the overall. It's pretty rare that any given team wins more than one of the three "grand tours" in a given year...much less an american team. Moreover, the highest ranked member (4th place currently)is an american named Levi Leipheimer who has never shown this kind of ability in major stage races and was really only included on the TdS team to ride in support of Roberto Heras (the defending champ)....and yet he has been kicking a** on every tough stage so far! It's been a very competitive race so far and there's still 1.5 weeks to go. Coverage comes on every night at 9pm EST for those of you who are interested.
