Lance and the Tour de France

He's in second..its early, but him and his teammate are up front. I think he will win number 7. Here's link for standings...

Lance is back on top...followed by another Discovery Channel teammate, and Zabriske is close behind for the Discovery Team in 9th!

Exactly. But I heard they removed the uphill part of the course just because of this. Is what I heard true?

I am not a big follower, but I haven't heard that. if they did that woudl be stupid, as it is part of the sport. Just because someone excells in it doesn't mena you remove it.

Think if MLB decided home runs were an automatic out because of Babe Ruth.

I would think missing a nut would help sitting on those awful bicycle seats. Lance is in front, his heart is like 33% larger than the average humans. They're lucky that this is his last race.

Yes, they took a large portion of uphill away from the race...if Lance wins, it will jsut be an even bigger story. What he's done won't be done again, legally.
