I just wonder how Armstrong is going to deal with his handicaps during the race. It's hard enough doing it without the roids but with the French stopping him every 15 minutes to pee in a cup it will kill his overall time.

:lol: :lol:

I am European, and still love Lance.
Dude is fucking hardcore with or without roids.
You gotta be impressed by his stamina, courage and that heart of gold.
:blush:

It's like watching England lose at all those sports they invented. Priceless.

Will he be in yellow after toady's team time trial?
I don't think so, Saxo Bank can manage a pretty good time trial and Cancellara has 40 seconds on Armstrong.

But as Menchov, Ballan and several others have already shown anything can apparently happen today. A very difficult route.

There is a small flaw in France's evil plan to tarnish the legacy of Austin's greatest: A Frenchman wasn't going to win any of those races anyway.  The only dude whose career got screwed by Lance was Jan Ulrich.

The Tour de France is rapidly becoming France's Wimbledon.

Zülle didn't get it easy either, first 2nd after Indurain and then a 2nd spot after Armstrong too. That guy was a laugh to see cycling.

Soon, Saxo Bank is using up a lot of energy to keep the yellow jersey. Anyway, shaping up to be a good race.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.

There is no Armstrong, only Zulle.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Altho, it's not like any French has won Rolang Garros lately either. Or been successfull in F1 Racing(as a pilot).

So Astana has 4 men in the top 5. I find it hard to see how anyone can challenge them, except for themselves. It'll be interesting to watch the first mountain stage on friday.

I think Armstrong will not be able to climb with Contador - Astana will not win with SOMEONE only if the two of them fight.  Somehow I think Armstrong wants to win, but that little spanish fellow is just too good now, too much of an all around threat.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

The Finn will lose the mountain jersey to a French it seems. This also just in, Lance will remain a fraction of a second behind.
