Who says bicycle racing is dead in America without Lance Armstrong?
The crowds that have been flocking to the Amgen Tour of California, and those following the race on the internet have been treated to plenty of excitement. How about today's breakaway that included Jens Voight of Team CSC and Viatcheslav Ekimov of Discovery Channel.
There was the suspense of whether they would be caught (they were), followed by the action of Discovery driving a freight train down the main drag of sunny Santa Barbara to deliver George Hincapie to his second Tour stage victory. …

American Floyd Landis retained the golden jersey in the Amgen Tour of California today, thanks to his Phonak team keeping the breakaways on the line.
But it was Juan José Haedo who once again surprised the sprinters and raced out front at the finish in San Luis Obispo. It's cool to see a virtual unknown racer beat the accomplished …

Cyclist Floyd Landis beat the next fastest finisher by nearly 26 seconds to win the Amgen Tour of California time trial in San Jose on Wednesday.
The US leader of the Swiss Phonak squad also gains the tour leader's golden jersey for his efforts. Discovery's George Hincapie, who achieved the leader's jersey Tuesday, finished the day in fourth, about a minute slower than Landis.

I've seen some pretty unique inventions for the bicycle come from across the pond. First there was the three-way Danish bicycle, then the sideways bicycle from Ireland.
Now a Swiss inventor has built a Bike Tree that stows bicycles out of the reach of passersby and under cover of an umbrella-like affair.
