    "Armstrong is the first rider to win in L'Alpe d'Huez with the yellow jersey
    on his back. He is also the sixth rider to win twice at the top of one of
    the Tour's most famous climbs, having also won it in 2001.

    But he narrowly failed to beat the late Marco Pantani's record for the climb
    proper - the stage started 1.5km before the foot of the hill -- clocking
    37:36 to the Italian's 37:35. "

    Personally, this is the way I was hoping the stage would turn out--LA wins,
    but Pantani keeps the record by a second. I know Lance didn't plan it that
    way, but I suspect he won't be too disappointed either.

    Of course, Marco had the big advantage of a 200 km warm-up ...

    I was wondering about that, how do you warm up for a TT like this?

    It's obvious he GAVE it to Pantani (R.I.P.) as a good will gesture.

    Let the arguments begin.
