2014 Amgen Tour of California Stage 7
We're more than halfway through this route
Once more the heat comes like a brute
Solo Mark C soldiers on
Showing grit on climb so long
We have a breakaway of four
a fast descent might close their door
This stage ends in Pasadena
For fast racing an arena
56 KM on tap
Sagan wants his mojo back
A quick descent and then the circuit
The pain is real but may be worth it
(Cadel is leading at the Giro
To all Aussies--cheer your hero!)
Fast Fred, Matt Goss, and Cav ride together
Think they're chatting about the weather?
The break is throwing the dice
Will Cannon throw on water ice?
The breakaway is pretty classy
Lars Boon, Ben King, and Greg Van A
Are showing they have much to say
Ditto Haga and Bolivar
UHC will go far
Cannondale puts on the gas
The head of group goes crazy fast
Less than 20 miles to go
The odds for Cav are very low
Pete has rehearsed his victory pump
'Tho up to now he's had the hump
Degenkolb wants to take a shot
Peter's canon says--"Or not!"
As in a poem by Rudyard Kipling
They advance 'tho pain is crippling
Three laps to go in miles just nine
A long time to tow the line
It's eyes down the last few minutes
Taylor Phinney is still in it
But in the end it's Pete!
Cannon fans get to your feet!
