One of the most incredible stages in the most incredible tour.

Hey!  You got some WHO here!
As the announcers would say...they have to go "mano e mano" (sp?).
What I also like is the sportsmanship on top of the putting it on the line.
Bust your ass, yet don't lose sight of the bigger picture of sportsmanship
and honor.
Not many sports can claim that.

Wow!
That must have been awesome.

I used to be a LeMond fan.  My fandom was dented at his complaints at having
to pull back that one tour to help his teammate, and was absolutely
destroyed when he eagerly jumped on the Lance Dope` band wagon.  He showed
little class there.
