AMAZING!! Holy taledo! These F'in rock! Levi atop that hill with the Great Well of China behind him??? seriously? What would Emeril say? BAM!!
Some amazing stuff here. Thanks for sharing a different view than what I saw a lot of during the games. To watch NBC you'd think there was just swimming, volleyball and track'field happening.
Great win for the British in the women's cycling too!
Quite a few months later, it's still great to "re-live" the Olympics. Thanks Liz!
