    Tradina may be a [censored] but not because of that post.

    Armstrong very may well not win another Tour, only time will tell.

    I don't think any of these guys. But you never know. Someone that never rode Le Tour may come and
    wipe all the rest of the field away. It already happened and it may happen again.

  12. Has someone said this after each win?

    I also remember lots of people saying Lance was done this year. Where are those people? "hold my

  13. well, if you keep saying this every year one year you will be correct and be able to gloat. To be
    sure it will be harder for Lance each year left in his career.

    My guess is that you will see a very "anti Lance" course next year. Modest stages, flat ITTs, short
    TTT. In a sense you could say that's unfair, but really, if he wants to earn himself a step in
    history above Mercx, shouldn't that really be earned? I'm sure thats how The Society will see it...

    He may win, but to do it, he'll have to show up with a lot more in the bag then he did this year.

    It´s not possible to tailor make an anti Lance course, unless the powers that be decide to drop all
    TTs and mountain stages.... The difficulty of the course will only affect the margin of victory, not
    the eventual outcome. Lance is just to good for the current generation of riders.

    What would be a true anti lance course...Would it be one to favor the climbers like simoni and mayo or would it be a TT course made for Jan. If it was at TT course then there is only one person who can even dream of challenging Lance. There will also be big mountains as the crowds come out. Not to mention that big mountains mean heroics for french riders think vireque, jalabert. Even in the TTT a short course may not benifit armstrong. If Botero was healthy and Vino continues his improvement then they might be the best. CSC could also challenge. Millar is also looking to move next year and he could put one of many teams way over postal in the TTT. So the TTT might actually be an advantage for other teams if they make a concerted effort.

    Newbie question, here--so go easy... It seems to me that a guy who can finish 4th with a broken
    collarbone could mount a serious challenge if he stays healthy. How can you rule out Hamilton so
    emphatically?
