So, Levi won Utah without a team.  How did he get water, food, etc?  Did he drop back to the car every single time he needed water then work his way back to the front all while wearing the leader's jersey?  Or was he getting tons of help from other riders or a team?  Doesn't seem right to me.

The Trek-Livestrong team was there, so I'm sure they were able to give him a hand with things...Roe and King put in some solid rides there.

The thing that amazes me is how well a lot of the young riders are doing in the pro ranks - look at Boswell who just finished third there. It's no different in Europe with a lot of the younger guys getting results - Bobridge/Martin (Dan/Tony), EBH, Sagan, van Garderen etc.

I thought he was registered under Mellow Johnny's for that race (too small a race for The Shack to show up). Was there really no Horner, no Armstrong, no nobody? Not even a car?

He had to offer up contracts on RS for help from the U23 guys!
