It would probably be more interesting if he isnt there with some new u and comings being more competitive so would bring more excitement. jazmo Wrote: This actually gives me more incentive to make a trip to Europe this yea and see some stages of the tour.

Lance Armstrong is riding Le Tour this year.
My ideal scenario:
Lance being there (I'm not his biggest fan - but gee I respect his awesome ability...), and being pushed hard through the whole race by some of the others (wet dream would be Cadel Evans..... but let's be realistic....) That way, we get to see Lance having to go hard through ALL the mountain stages (instead of just blowing the field apart in 1 or 2, and going with the field for the other 20 stages)... Might give us more insight into the neverending Armstrong vs Merckxx debate as well!! If Lance won both yellow & polka dot, I think he would have a strong claim to all-time greatest status..... Cheers, Absent Husband (who does NOT want to start a Lance vs Eddie debate, but had to throw his 2 cents in....) |

I agree, the Tour cept for 2003 has been rather boring. Needs to mov on from the Lance domination and be exciting. No one ever even attack him. The two guys (Vino and Mayo) that did in 2003 were basicall injured for the 2004 race. I just hope the competition turns u prepared to race this year. The Giro looks to be the real interesting GT of this year, with Bass and Cunego going at it -- oely |

Cheers, Absent Husband (who does NOT want to start a Lance vs Eddie debate but had to throw his 2 cents in....) I think there is only 3 real mountain stages this year. With that i mind its possible Evans (and any other pretenders please turn up i peak condition) could at least stick with the front groups, thoug there is nothing much in the way of helpers for him. Mario Aerts o even Merkx maybe. I dont see much changing though, Discovery´s tea will be even stronger this year with Savoldelli and Popyvich added. I dont think winning the polka dot means that much, I think (haven look up the stats) but Armstrong could of won the jersey before i Virenque did not do his insane all day breakaways. (not meaning t turn this into a debate -- oely |
