USA Pro-Cycling Challenge Stage 3 8/13
Watching stage three in high definition
I tell you that life can be totally
bitchin'
Jens Voight once again
makes his years disappear
As he leads the break from
the get with no fear
He says the best defense is an attack
Correcting mistakes they made one stage back
Frank, Mathias is pleased as punch
To win stage two from a hard hitting bunch
Pete Sagan came up roses stage one
I bet his conditioning stay has been fun
Colorado seems a welcoming state
For a young champ to operate
I went to Breckenridge to view stage two
The finish was swell with great hullabaloo
The organizers kept things ship shape
This USA challenge is coming on great!
Lachlan Morton does Garmin proud
Race leader--at this moment
One of the crowd
Chris Froome summarizes Sky strategy
A warm-up race for late season victory
As an eye-witness I must testify
The pack looked super as they galloped by
Ignited by heights of Independence
Pass
They finished like freshmen on first day of class
Breaking news!! A nature break en masse
For the five escapees -- they're not abashed
Cooperation in the extreme
Let's just call them a tinkling team
Dombrowski is out leaving Sky on a hunt
Other teams' stage hopes will sure feel the brunt
Porte and Froome have lost too much time
Feeling the pressure of climb after climb
Jens compares Le Tour to childbirth
He attacks from the break showing his worth!
51 km to go the gaps over five
and he's going for broke
The group comes alive and starts to stroke
Jens is well spoken and very game
He gives middle age a good name
Lochlan Morton remains cavalier
Garmin has his backside through Rabbits' Ear
5 km to the top of the pass
Jens shows the rest of the lads his ass
There's a climb, undulations, and then a steep drop
Can Jensie possibly stay on top?
I shed a tear at his heroics
He's so wild and yet so stoic!
Jens starts the plunge
In a skiers' crouch
Those famous legs of his say 'ouch!'
The peloton careens at speed
four miles to go it's close indeed
The Peloton is a frothing beast
They take out Jens like lightning, greased
Peter takes it with élan
He seems so chill, the winning man!
Old and young make special marks
At least on this one bloggers' heart
