Tour de Lance
Big Ups to Lance Armstrong! Not only for winning his incredible 7th consecutive Tour de France, but for being an inspiration to millions and, in my opinion, single-handedly keeping the world interested in bike racing.
I’ve gotta be honest…other than an occasional Greg LeMond glance, I knew very little about the Tour before Lance Armstrong. Now that he is retiring, it will be interesting how many people, other than the true fans, are really interested about the race next year, especially Americans.
What Mr. Armstrong has done is absolutely amazing and as the years go by, I have a feeling it will become even more amazing. Congratulations for being able to go out on top of your sport, as you deserve. Much respect!
