OT: For you cycling enthusiasts

I just found out that my brother got to ride with Lance Armstrong.  It probably only occured for a few brief moments.  Last week my brother participated in the "Ride accross Iowa"  which he described as a traveling state fair.  Towns accross the state submit applications years in advance to host the riders and the fair.  My brother said this is the largest gathering of cyclists on a long ride in the country.  And, Lance Armstrong just happened to be one of them.  Tom said the few words spoken by Lance were "get to the side so I can get by."   It was said in kindness since he's just in so much better shape than most of the riders. My brother's in pretty good shape for a 54 year old man.  He does various charity rides accross the country.  He plans to eventually ride the entire East Coast within the next couple of years.  If you ever get to NJ, his favorite ride in the Shore to Shore which goes from Sandy Hook to Cape May over a weekend in May.

Wouldn't imagine anyone rides "with" Lance for very long!
