That's cool. I was in Holland for the BMX Worlds and Lance stopped in our hotel. I saw the US Postal Subes outside and thought they were support crew going home. Later a friend of mine bumped into Lance in the lobby and got some photos and autographs. I probably walked withing 30' of him and didn't know it :mumble:
