I was able to make a quick trip out to Leadville this year to crew for two buddies and to prep bikes for other riders that where there. It was the first time for me being there at the race without racing... wow... what a completely different perspective! Anyway, I kinda threw this video together in minimal time and effort. I set up "camp" just outside the pipeline checkpoint (outbound) and was able to catch Lance both outbound and inbound. Check out the video at approx 4:34 and see what I was able to come away with (photo below)... Very cool! Anyway, bottom line is that both Chris and Marcus was able to come back to Leadville this year to finally claim the Silver Buckle that has been just out of reach in past attempts. Did I miss not racing this time around? Maybe just a little. Did being there put a spark back in me to do this event for the 6th time? Maybe... Finally, check out the "guest" appearance at the end of the video. Enjoy!!!
Here's what Lance didn't need to bring home the win in record time...
