I gave Lance the look today...

Well...I looked at Lance today...and I waved...and he waved back.

My ride partner and I drove to Dripping Springs this morning for a ride. We rode from there last week too and we kept joking that every rider we saw was Lance, as he has a ranch in the area.

On our return on Creek Road, we spotted a runner coming towards us, closely followed by a black Hummer with its flashers on. I said to my partner, "that's gotta be Lance" and sure enough it was. We exchanged waves and continued on. The Hummer appeared to be driven by his girlfriend and there were a couple kids in it also. Good stuff.

While we didn't want to interrupt his training, we had the perfect opportunity to do so as my ride partner is currently dating a German cyclist who trains at Mellow Johnny's and occasionally rides with him.

No pics...but it DID happen.

Oh...when I told this story to my wife and daughter, they both focused on the fact that his poor girlfriend and kids had to sit there in the car following him. Sheesh!
