  1. From cyclingnews.com on June 11th:

    "Armstrong has a number of objectives for this race, and none of them are necessarily to win it. "I
    want to see my teammates at work...""

    Well, I guess one way of seeing whether your team is up to snuff is to fall off your bike, so that
    everybody has to drop back to help pull you back up to the field. ;-)

    (Five bucks says that some naive Armstrong fan somewhere will argue that this was a planned move,
    not only to test the rest of the USPS riders, but to help psyche out the competition by making them
    believe Armstrong can be beaten, if only via luck.)
