That is soo cool! I ran into Levi Leipheimer like that one day. He was getting ready for a ride and I was out for a run. It was the fall after he placed pretty high in the tdf and I congratulated him on his tour finish. He seemed rather astonished that I even knew he rode int he tour! ha ha
I also got passed by what I call the Levi freight train on a long ride one day. I think they were coming back from the Geysers and the wind they created as they blew by me almost knocked me off my bike! It was AMAZING!
Very very cool! And with the race coming into town I'm sure you'll have more "Sightings" in the next week.
