I wonder why he warms up with his disk wheel? I guess so he can warm up right until his start time and if for some reason he flats them pros got enough wheels to satisfy anybody.
@Joeylatz 85-95 is normal, are a Lance Armstrong fan per chance? Actually, no cadence is normal, everyone is different (i ride at 85-90, looks cooler, others ride at 100+). However in a race, mainly because I'm a junior and have restricted gears, I can be sat down going downhill at 40mph with a cadence closer to 200+. It's about what's comfy and works for you. Cav sprints at 120ish max, Boonen far less.
Actually, it's the distinct sound of his disc wheel. The carbon fiber acts like a big speaker and makes that roaring sound. It's a sound triathletes/time trialists love to hear, just not coming up behind them! :)
Levi, i this year was really close (it's now saturday before Champs elysees, i dont think you're gonna win the tour this year) but next year you're gonna do it!

Do you ride a bike? 100 RPM is normal. 130 RPM is, as I said, nothing.

you cant complain, it's just what it says it is. If you're watching it, it's because you want to know (probably) how Leipheimer warms up.
