The Weekend that Was

Well, the weekend started off perfectly as Friday right about 5:30 we received some much needed rain. B'ham is about 20 inches below the norm in rain fall this year. We've had water restrictions for the better part of a month now, so the small storm that came through was a perfect start to the weekend. Please send more!
We went to see Oceans 13 that night with some friends. I'll have to say it was definitely worth going to see, but it wasn't nearly as good as the first two. It had plenty of funny moments, but lacked realistic opportunities and abilities by the "thieves." I can't describe it any better than a buddy of put it. "It was a lot of cool actors, doing a lot of cool things. That's what everybody wanted to see and that's what they were given."
Training:
Saturday morning, I met "Team Transitions" for a front end brick, a 20 minute swim followed by a 31 mile bike ride.
Sunday - back end brick - 37 mile bike ride then a 5 mile run.
Congrats to Christophe Moreau for winning the Dauphine Libre today. My boy Levi Leipenheimer was robbed of a stage win by a freak crash with a km to go. Hopefully, there's no damage done, and he'll be back in form for Le Tour coming up in just a couple of weeks.
