2014 Amgen Tour of California Stage 5

2014 Amgen Tour of California Stage 5


Although my room is small and steaming
I'm still Tour of Cali dreaming
We 're now close to St Marcos pass
Today 's break won't be allowed to last !
Cannon's working hard for Pete
He 's in form and hard to beat
The wind ahead will be a factor
Jens Voigt attacks--a wily actor
The grand old man of the bunch
He loves to add some extra crunch!
This five mile climb is very telling
Jaramillo shows what he is selling
Will Routely takes the KOM
Phinney descends like the wind
The pace is high it's all downhill
If he can escape he will
Cannondale is forced to chase
If Pete is gonna win this race
Joining CAN is Orica-G
Will they stop Taylor Phinney?
Taylor keeps his leading spot 
Man!  Not just the sun is hot!
4 KM he catches a tailwind
It seems like he is gonna win!
What a ride for BMC
'Nuff respect to T. Phinney
He bows like a King so regal
He's our own American eagle!
His grace! His class!
His ride a blast!
Cav left on the road
Pete came two
Matt Goss three
But Taylor took the load!
This Amgen tour has proved to be
A font of electricity
I'm in front of my swamp cooler 
Bowing to Taylor -- stage ruler
