So Long, Lance
It's official. Lance Armstrong is riding his bike into the sunset after winning a record-shattering seventh Tour de France. Armstrong brought a great deal of pleasure to us cycling fans and managed to re-popularize the sport in the United States to a certain extent.
Future Tours will be interesting, without a dominating rider like Armstrong, the field is wide open. The race will certainly be exciting next year, but it will also have a little sadness.
Thanks for everything, Lance.
