Lance Armstrong on the Bike Again


Just when we thought Lance Armstrong had retired, and given up the bicycle for a margarita and the Texas lifestyle, he's back again. He's hopped back on his bike and sprinted within one second of the lead in the biggest cycling event in the world. And for all I know, it could be the only cycling event in the world. The Tour de France is now back in the limelight with Armstrong back in the mix. He has once again made this event, a legitimate sports discussion. Many allegations and questions always surround Armstrong, wherever he goes. However, it's hard to bet against a man that's already beat cancer, and won 7 Tour de France titles. I'd love nothing more than to watch him come back and win an 8th, and hopefully put those doping allegations to bed. He has to be considered one of the great athletes of our generation, and if he had won this many championships in any other sport he already would be considered one of the greatest. Let's sit back and enjoy this ride with him, and see if he can't make history once again.
