Levi Leipheimer

In addition to riding bikes whenever I can, Christy and I watch cycling on TV whenever it is available, and whenever we notice that it is on. Read that to mean not very often. We like to watch cycling, but other than the Tour de France, the Tour of Georigia, and the Tour of California we don't see it too much.

One of the things that Christy came up with a few years ago while watching the Tour de France was playing the "Levi Leipheimer" drinking game. He was a little know rider, and his name was fun to say. The game was simple. Everytime Phil Liggit, Paul Sherwin, or Bob Roll would say the words "Levi Leipheimer", you would take a drink. It was a fun game to play a few years ago, but you could get pretty thirsty at times.

That isn't the case anymore. We are sitting here tonight trying to get through the week's recordings of the Tour of California. I'm glad it's Friday night. Because of Levi's sucess this week, I'm so drunk I can barely type. Don't get me wrong. I'm happy for Levi, but his success this week has taken a personal toll.

It's been fun. Try it at home. Go Levi!

Paul - Yes we have a DVR, but rewinding can be hazardous to your liver!

Greg - Chisty drinks the good stuff. It would be cheaper going out!

Sorry it took me a while to respond. We've been of the grid for a few days. See the next post.
