So Close. | 09.03.2006: While Hincapie and Leipheimer hugged the right-hand barriers for their finishes, thankfully the remaining 7 riders to complete the full distance passed inches in front of me on the left-hand side of the road to contest their finishing spots.

Burke Swindlehurst, about 150 meters from the finish, is about 2 seconds away from getting smoked by Danny Pate for the bronze medal.
