Looks like Lance is rolling to (yet) another win. Really an impressive feat. Interesting quote:

Nevertheless the final victory tomorrow has not tempted him to reconsider his decision to retire.

"You know I'm even more convinced now than I ever was. I've had an unbelievable career. I've been blessed to ride 14 years as a professional. I've been blessed to win the Tour seven times after my illness. I've been blessed with financial rewards I never thought possible. There is no reason to continue. It's time for a new story, time for new faces."

He really is the greatest modern athlete, and one of the greatest in history. Congrats on lucky seven.

Lance Armstrong will go down as this century's greatest athlete bar none. He has done America proud.
