If you're at all into bike racing, you should check out the Tour of Spain right now. Pretty exciting stuff happening with Sepp Kuss. For those of you who don't watch, Sepp Kuss is an American who is the premier support guy in the world of cycling, he's the main person who helps others win the big races, what they call a "domestic". He's the guy who gets the water bottles and feed bags from the support cars and carries them to his teammates, and rides in critical stages of the races to the front so his teammates can ride easily in his draft saving their energy for the last steep climb or sprint. This particular race it worked out so that Sepp's in the lead, and instead of his two main teammates turning the favor and supporting him, yesterday they tried to crush him. It didn't work. Sepp's still in the lead.This was done after years of Sepp giving everything up in terms of personal wins to help those teammates win. The race is coming down to the final stage - here's to you Sepp, hang on to the jersey (and next year, try to get on a new team...) !!!
