    ... race promoters change the course to please you:

    cyclingnews.comnews.php Lance Armstrong will make his
    season debut next week at the Volta ao Algarve in Portugal (February 18-22). The organisers,
    impressed with the presence of the five time Tour de France winner, have even changed the race plan
    to include a time trial.

    "It wasn't an imposition by us, as we would have gone anyway," said United States Postal Service
    Presented by Berry Floor Supported by Advanced Micro Devices "World's Highest Density NOR Flash"
    Cycling Team team director Johan Bruyneel to Marca. "But I said to the organisers that we were
    interested in doing a test and they agreed to put in a time trial, which we are grateful for (sic)."
