I enjoyed watching the Tour of California today. I was especially glad to see Floyd Landis riding again. I know all the hype is around Lance Armstrong and team Astana, but I really think Floyd got a raw deal. Perhaps he doped, maybe he didn't, but he proved that the samples were tainted and protocol was not followed. Why should he or other cyclists have their career destroyed by people who themselves can't be held to high standards? It doesn't make sense.Here are some of the notable results:
1. Fabian Cancellara - Team Saxo Bank - 00:04:32.91
2. Levi Leipheimer - Astana - 00:04:34.11
3. David Zabriskie - Garmin-Slipstream - 00:04:35.56
6. George Hincapie - Team Columbia-High Road - 00:04:36.25
10. Lance Armstrong - Astana in 00:04:37.17
90. Floyd Landis - Ouch Presented By Maxxis - 00:04:53.26
So enjoy the Tour of California and welcome back Floyd!
