Leipheimer Wins 2nd Straight Tour of California

Smart riding, a strong second on the big climbing stage, and a smashing win in the ITT add up to Levi Leipheimer's second straight title at his hometown event, the Tour of California.

Crap weather and strong teams made for an exciting race, and the American teams didn't fair too poorly.

On the final stage, George Hincapie of High Road took the win after a long slog in the rain, and Levi finished safely with the bunch to secure his overall win.
