Just watched the final bits of the 2011 Tour Down Under on SBS and the
closing speeches where Lance Armstrong was called up to say a few words.
That Armstrong fellow has a very disarming way about him when he is on
stage with a microphone.
I am sure he is probably very unpopular in some circles but speaking for
meself as an average bloke on a pushie, he seems alright.
A bit of shame he is retiring - again
. I wouldn't have minded telling
me grandkids that I have ridden with Lance Armstrong, even if it was on
one of his Twitter rides
Of cos, if I had, in fact, ridden on one of
his Twitter rides, which I have never done so, I'll probably not be
exactly saying it was a Twitter ride but make it sound a bit more like a
Tour de France or the Paris to Roubaix or something equivalent
