Armstrong for the Hour?
January 25th, 2009 |Sure, I bag on Armstrong, but if he went for the hour record that would be pretty awesome.
He’s already looking to bolster his legacy by racing the Giro d’Italia in 2009. Adding the hour record would cement his legacy in cycling for all time.
I hope he goes for it.

poop. Why doesn’t it work when I try to post an image?
Not only that – but there’s substantiated rumor that he, Christian Vandevelde, George Hincapie and Taylor Phinney have been talking about putting an effort into team pursuit for the 2012 Olympics.
If Lance in his 40s signed up for the team pursuit my money would still be on the Brits.
I will say this for him though. He’s the second best stage racer on his team.

I Lance!!
I meant to say that I “heart” Lance -but it didn’t quite work out that way…..so yah-there ya’ go!!
@Bob Schwartz – Same here. It’d be cool to see all four of those guys on the track together but there’s no way they’re knocking off the Brits or the Kiwis. The All Blacks are looking good these days – Jesse Sergeant (who happens to be one of TP’s Livestrong U23 teammates) turned a 4:17 in qualifying in the Beijing WC a fortnight ago. That’s Wiggins territory…
taint going to happen
today’s lance looks like a masters racer on the bike
kind of awkward compared to the (young)PROS
