I took this photo from the curb of a Pasadena residential street as Lance and fellow cyclists pedaled by on the Tour of California on Saturday. Okay, I know you can’t tell it’s Lance, because of my poor photography skills, but he’s the seventh one back, in the black and yellow helmet!!

If you read my post on Lance awhile back, you know how much I admire his athleticism (and what a hotty I think he is), so it was immensely exciting to see him up close on Saturday, during the Amgen Tour of California race. 

Yes, I was about 7 feet from his hotness as he sped by! The best part was that they did a five mile loop several times, so I got to see him pass right by me more than once!!!

Here is a close up photo of him at LA Times Sports, just so you know it really is him in the black and yellow helmet!
