It'll be a tough tour. His TT loss at Dauphiné Libéré was troubling. He turned his best time ever and still got smoked. 
Ullrich, Tyler, Mayo, Basso, Heras it'll be really tough to win this year but at least he won't have to deal w/Vino. On the positive side he's been in Europe for a while training and he's got a strong team. It'll be a different and better Lance this year than last.

BTW I saw Lance riding his bike thru the Austin hill country near where I live last year. I've never seen anyone ride a bike up a steep hill as fast as Lance does. He must have been going 20-25 mph uphill!!

I've been a tour fan since the Greg LeMond days. We follow the giro d'Italia and Vuelta Espana, too. All I can say is GO LANCE!!!

Aren't they doing the Lance Cronicles or something on OLN at night? I have been watching and it is rather interesting how he trains and just keeps going...
I need to ride to get some more calorie burning in, but I live in South Jersey where it is as flat as pancake face.

Sorry I didn't respond sooner, but I'm a big fan of cycling and Lance Armstrong.
I'm totally addicted to watching the tour this year. I try to catch at least an hour every night on OLN.
Tonight's race is pretty boring, but the Team event was awesome yesterday. US Postal looks REALLY strong this year

What I did watch was that US Postal was about 15 minutes back for most of the race. I know there were a few crashes, but I missed most of them. Usually the long distance 200+km legs of the race bore me. I like the sprints or hill climbs.
Anyone catch Lance blowing up his rivals today???? 
:cheer:
