Yes, I agree. The man has accomplished things many top
athletes would'nt have thought possible. I would of thought just getting past that little cancer thing that should have ended things for him would have been enough. I read a story about some hockey player had read Lance did 15 mph on a certain setting on one of those high end stationary bikes. Dude man tried it and only lasted 15 minutes! Obviously two different sports but you would think most hockey player would be in fair shape especially in the leg area. Much respect for this guy. |

It's legs...and lungs.
Read Lance's book " It's not About the Bike" The Cancer was a very big deal and saving his lungs was key. |

Those crowds were scary - I was on the edge of my seat waiting for someone to get tangled up and knock him off.
Apparently several 'fans' were spitting on him as well. Despite all that it was a phenominal ride. Richard |
