Pennsylvanian Mennonite Floyd Landis has captured the yellow jersey in the Tour de France and will ride in to Paris for a first-place finish tomorrow morning! His time trial put him 59 seconds ahead of second place rider Oscar Pereiro, and 1:29 ahead of Andreas Kloden. That makes it 8 years in a row that an American has finished on top of the podium in Paris. And to think that he used to have to sneak out at night to bike because his parents didn't like it...
