Tour de France

Has anyone been watching the Tour de France this year? I've been trying, but for some reason I keep waking up late and it's really pissing me off. Lance Armstrong is second in the standings, only 22 seconds behind the leader, and they're in the mountains now. It seems like Lance will probably win his 6th Tour this year.

That guy is amazing, no doubt. One of the greatest athletes of the past 10 years.

Lance just won the stage today, and he now has the yellow jersey.

I know that this is a double post, but it has been a few days.

Lance has now secured the top spot in the Tour de France. Tomorrow is the race in Paris, and then they will announce the winners. The top five are Armstrong, Kloden, Basso, Ullrich, and Azevado. I don't think that this tour was as exciting as last years, but that's because it came down to the second to the last race to decide the winner.

Edit: Since I don't want to triple post, I'll just edit this post. The Tour is over and Lance has now won his 6th Tour in a row, and nobody has ever done that before. It's amazing what he has done, and remember he had cancer in 1996-1997 I believe. He's such a strong human being, and probably the best athlete in the world.
