Mea cupla saying that he'd finish fourth in a four man
sprint (CN fitness letters a few weeks back). He also led
out Van Heeswijk for a stage win earlier this year too. A
strijkijzer he ain't!

I believe it was the Criterium International where he was
spotted gunning for an intermediate sprint, too. Weird.

In races without a prologue it makes sense to get ahead of competition for a better start order in the time trial.

This is a test for extending his career after his Tour days
are over. The sprint was downhill. A Winter 2004-05 of
Krispy Cremes and he'll be on the Mtb Downhill Circuit.

It wasn't exactly a textbook sprint. THere was hill where he attacked and then he rode downhill into a sprint. I am not sure about this year, but there are occasionally finishes where an attack can win in the tdf and maybe lance is looking for a road stage win. Regardless, I think it shows that Lance is in good form. It also may have just been that lance was staying near the front to avoid a crash and then he siezed an opportunity. If Lance tears up a hill and he can see the finish with no one in front of him he is going to try to win.

Armstrong wanted the time bonus to move himself in front
of Jens Voight on GC. This way he will start the ITT
after Voight.

I can see it now. Pierced ears, nose, lips, nipples. Tattoos
(real ones). Some kind of streak died in his hair. I'd say
he'll start dating Missy Giove, but she doesn't look enough
like his mom.

Missy is a lesbian and would only use Armstrong for some fun
and games--not a relationship, unless f&g constitutes a
relationship. BTW, wouldn't Lance have to have a Prince
Albert, at least, to do downhill?

Hmmmmm. I wonder if this is part of a new strategy. Either
way, it's a VERY welcome turn of events... I fully expected
Armstrong to just show up, coast to the finish line every
day and sign autographs. Now if he decided not to retire,
but instead to continue riding the TdF and gun for stages,
while adding more of the classics to his calendar... then I
would forgive him everything (FWIW).
