  • {quote}Hey Liz...smell this...{quote}
  • Time to take the kids to school.
  • Lance dropping the kids off at school
  • Lance checks out some videos on YouTube before the ride...I was more interested in the 2009 Giro route...Start in Venice - Finish in Rome...Please don't wake me up!!
  • {quote}Hey I know you...{quote}
  • Lance, Kevin and College work it for the camera...ok College tries to work it!
  • What a gorgeous day for a ride...a little chilly for us Texans, but we'll take this weather in December.
  • Thank you jet planes...Two different types of speed!
  • I was shooting out of the sunroof and noticed the boys reflection in the windshield...something different...
  • Lance dropped Kevin and College in Blanco and finished the ride solo.
  • Bolch follows Lance and has the snicker bars and coke ready...among other things. He has a rule...no snacking in the car until 50k into the ride...six hours is a long time.
  • I love ths shot but was hoping to get Lance head to head with the engine...the trees didn't cooperate and blocked the shot...there was no do over.
  • Lance hosts a fundraiser at his home for President Clinton's non profit...the Clinton Global Initiative. I get the {quote}Conton Factor{quote} He is very charismatic, smart and engaging.
  • Lance instructs daughter Bella and friend Riley where to run before their cross country meet.
  • Lance cheers for Bella and sticks to video duty while I cover the stills.
  • Lance joins JB (right) and Sandy on Mix 94.7 for the Bikes for Kids giveaway. Thousands of dollars were raised by listeners which provided hundreds of bikes for less fortunate children of Austin.
  • This year the giveaway was held at Mellow Johnny's Bike shop with fake snow and all.
  • Taylor and Ben chill in Lance's guest house while they train with him in Austin for a week. Not a bad gig for two 18 year olds...Fo Sho (Taylor's lingo)
  • Lance and the boys are riding to the ranch, so he packs a bag for the weekend.
  • Lance and {quote}T{quote} get ready for the ride to the ranch.
  • Lance taking a morning business call...not a bad view at the ranch.
  • T and Ben make everyone breakfast...(hopefully better than the burned steaks the night before)
  • Even Lance is blushing at the YouTube videos Taylor and Ben are showig him...Oh to be 18.
  • Lance takes the boys on a 5 hour ride out south. Ben and Taylor are both on the under 23 LIVESTRONG team that will be headed up by Axel Merckx
  • The boys hang tough with Lance...although what do you talk to 18 yr olds about for 5 hours?
  • Lance checks his seat position...
  • Bolch and I stop for goodies at the Deutsch Apple Bakery in Blanco and have to speed to catch up! They have the best muffins ever! www.thedeutschapple.com
