Radioshack/Leipheimer TOC article headline

[mc_mountain]

Although Leipheimer is aiming to win his 4th TOC, none of the previous 3 were won with Radioshack. This makes the headline of the this article in my view highly inaccurate.

'Leipheimer confident that RadioShack can win a fourth Amgen Tour of California'

it needs to be Leipheimer confident that RadioShack can HELP HIM win HIS fourth Amgen Tour of California or something similar

Maybe JB Discovery/Astana is counted as RadioShack when it's to do with race wins, yet when it comes to systematic doping RadioShack is a new entity.

Just a bad headline.

Should read:
'Leipheimer confident that RadioShack can help him win his fourth Amgen Tour of California'

 

[The Hitch]

Just a bad headline.

Should read:
'Leipheimer confident that RadioShack can help him win his fourth Amgen Tour of California'

Or

"Leipheimer conficent that Radioshack can win the fourth GT"

The way I saw it he is going for a shack win, not necessarily his own, that is how I read it.

I found the whole article a bit trollish lol.

C'mon, the sub headline = "American looking forward to Mount Baldy mountain finish
Enough with the bald jokes already.

And how about "with podium places at both the Vuelta a Espana and the Tour de France. However, he ranks his three Amgen Tour of California victories as his biggest career achievements".
That just begs for the standard "4th Grand Tour" discussion lol.

I'm shocked to find flicker and polish on this thread. Shocked, I tell you.

Levi one of the 4 greatest US top riders ever!

#1 Lance Armstrong
#2 Levi Leipheimer
#3 George Mount
#4 Me

what? no LeMond, or Hampsten?

BTW this could be the year someone else other than Levi wins the ATOC.

My top four American racers would be:

1) Armstrong
2) LeMond
3) Hampsten
4) Leipheimer
