Lance at Rocky Hill MTB Race - 11-10-2008, 05:11 PM



Armstrong is in black and yellow, number 7. The other expert racers are thinking, "I'm ahead of Lance!" LOL, not for long.


I've seen that look before; he beat the field after 28 miles of mountain bike racing by a minute.

How much of the "wow" factor was out there. I know he has raced Rocky Hill in the past but I hadn't heard of him being there since before the tour days.

I bet Scott Henry was pretty impressed with himself. Finishing 2nd to the greatest rider of all time, and less than 2 min back after a 2 hour race.

Canon and a few lenses.

Rocky Hill is south of Austin at Smithville, Tx. Trivia, name the movie that was filmed in Smithville, directed by Forest Whitaker?

WOW I didn't know there is Rocky Hill near Austin. That is pretty cool that Lance goes there. I wish I was there.

Seeing and photographing LA was a real plus. I was there to support my team; here are a few of them.






We had a couple of state champions on the team!!

Used to know the street the house was on. I think it was at the end of the street.
