The Colorado cities participating in this year’s USA Pro Cycling Challenge have been announced and I cannot wait til August 2012.  We traveled from our place in Evergreen, CO to Breckenridge to watch the 5th stage of the 2011 race and took a number of great pictures.  Today’s post shows the lead riders heading into Breckenridge.  At the front in the lime green racing kit are Elia Viviani of Italy and Liquigas teammate Daniel Oss.  Viviani won the stage after a great lead out by Daniel Oss.  Close behind the two Liquigas riders, in the  race leader’s yellow jersey is Levi Leipheimer, then of Radio Shack and now GC rider for the Belgian Team Omega Pharma Quickstep.
