2011 Vuelta: Phinney fifth in time trial
Aug. 29, 2011: Watch the highlights of Taylor Phinney's fifth-place result in the Stage 10 time trial at the Vuelta a Espana.
Ever had that feeling that the cycling race you're competing at might actually be the set of a movie? Well, it happened to Taylor Phinney last week:
"I have the overwhelming sense that we are all taking part in an Indiana Jones movie here at Tour of Oman."
With 81 percent of readers' votes, that tweet had enough action and intrigue to secure Phinney the latest Tweet of the Week title, defeating Dara Torres (11 percent) and Ryan Hall (8 percent).
Meanwhile, we'll be eagerly awaiting the latest installment of the Indiana Jones saga -- Indiana Jones: Tour of Oman -- with the always entertaining Phinney in the role he was meant to play as Harrison Ford's sidekick.
