Lance Armstrong leads again

I'm pretty sure if he wins this one, he'll be the only biker to ever win 6 in a row. If memory serves, an Italian guy won 5 in a row....

Go Lance!

:cheers:

As old Dandy Don Meredith would sing..."Turn out the lights, the party's over..."

not to date myself too much with that reference.

Armstrong adds to lead, winning time trial up to L'Alpe d'Huez ski station

Riding through a frenzied sea of fans, Lance Armstrong dominated his rivals Wednesday and extended his overall lead in the Tour de France by winning a time trial high in the Alps.

Best part of this deal was this:

Armstrong's original plan had been to let Landis win. But in the end, the chance for a 20th career individual stage victory and his third in as many days in his favorite cycling race was just too good to pass up.

At the top of final climb, Armstrong reached an arm over to Landis and gave him the green light to try for what would have been his first individual victory. The finish was 13 kilometers (8 miles) away, at the end of a long, speedy descent to Le Grand-Bornand in the French Alps.

"I said, 'How bad do you want to win a stage in the Tour de France?' He said, 'Real bad,"' Armstrong recounted later. "I said, 'How fast can you go downhill?' and he said, 'I go downhill real fast.' He said, 'Can I do it?' And I said, 'Sure you can do it.' Then I told him, 'Run like you stole something, Floyd."'
 
He is sooo far ahead after today's run that he is almost assured of the win.
