Floyd & Levi
by Mike on Jul.14, 2006, under Cycling
Floyd Looked very strong yesterday, as did Levi Leipheimer. I am sure that Levi is just kicking himself for such a poor time trial on Saturday. With just a decent performance in the TT, Levi would be in a podium position right now.
I am still very confused by the timing of Floyd’s hip replacement announcement. What a weird time to announce it – even having the doctor in France for the announcement. Is it part of the psychological battle between the GC contenders?
Whatever the reason, you have to be impressed by Floyd. He is clearly the man to beat. If he can hold his lead thru the Alps, I don’ think any GC men can beat him in the final TT and another American will be wearing yellow in Paris. How cool will that be?
