Perhaps Lance Armstrong's best-known lieutenant, Levi Leipheimer has had a fine individual career.
His best Tour de France performance to date came in 2007, when he finished third overall. He won June’s Tour of Switzerland and finished runner-up to RadioShack teammate Chris Horner in the Tour of California.
He and his wife, ex-racer Odessa Gunn, live in Santa Rosa, Calif., with a bevy of critters (they're both animal lovers). You can follow his musings on Facebook and Twitter, and keep an eye out for a documentary about him – due to come out next year.
