And that's why I still put Indurain above Armstrong: he managed to win two doubles.

Indurain would of had six straight TDF if not for Delgado. Add to that his
other wins as mentioned.

Sorry, if you get the tape of the 90 Tour de France and watch Indurain
you'll see that he didn't have it in him to beat LeMond that year. He wasn't
TT'ing well and Greg could have ridden with him on the climbs.
The Exraterrestrial didn't show up until the following year.
Strange that you didn't say, "Indurain would have won 6 straight except for
Riis" since it makes as much sense.

At this point I tend to agree with you about Indurain. But if Lance
wins a 6th tdf one would have to re-examine issue. Personally I don't
see why Lance could enter the Giro slightly off form and race into
shape.

Now you should add that Lemond would have one five straight in not for
getting shot and having his appendix out. Add that to his other wins
as mentioned.
If they didn't win then they didn't win. Add nothing in that case.

No one wouldn't. Even if Lance wins a 6th he still hasn't won two doubles.

And no one else has won six, including Merckx. So?

That's fine for the record books but it means little in terms of relative
athletic prowess. By virtue of his two doubles, Indurain would still have
won one more GT than LANCE.

Your right, because winning the double twice makes Indurain a more
complete Champion. I think it's a shame that Lance has not tried to
win the Giro or the Vuelta.

Is it a shame that Jan hasn't (doubled) either? Why race the Giro and risk
losing the Tour? Indurain is still best known for his TdF wins. Lance will
always be known for beating cancer, and winning the TdF. I'm surprised more
riders don't attempt the Giro/Vuelta double. It would seem to be a lot
easier.
