Levi Leipheimer Diary

Every day, Gerolsteiner’s Levi Leipheimer sends his impressions of the Tour de Georgia to Cyclingnews. At Wednesday’s stage, Levi was happy to lead his teammate Peter Wrolich to a stage victory: "Yesterday's uneventful day lead to a nice outcome today. My teammate Peter Wrolich won the stage! Peter is one of our great sprinters.

Once we entered the arrival city of Rome, we had four undulating circuits. Discovery kept the pace really fast, which was good for Peter and I because we were already up front. With a kilometre to go I was in the top five when suddenly a rider tried to pass from my side but misjudged the space and crashed! I had to ease off for a second, but then tried to drive the pace up for Peter's finish. Peter delivered!"
