Lance Armstrong wins first race after comeback to pro cycling
It was in little town in Colorado that Lance decided to return to pro cycling after taking on the Leadville 100 and finishing in second place.
Now he's moved up the podium to the top spot as he wins the Nevada City Classic holding back his teammate Levi Leipheimer who finished in 3rd place just a second behind Ben Jacques-Maynes.
On twitter Armstrong wrote:
"What a great Nevada City Classic. I managed to get the win, @levi_leipheimer was 3rd. HARD race. The crowds? Electric..."
Over 15,000 people watch Armstrong race and he did not disappoint "repeated 1.1-mile circuit through the historic mining town in 1 hour, 28 minutes and 20 seconds, sprinting away from the peloton with about six laps to go on the hilly course," according to the AP.
