Who’s crazy idea was this comeback?

Lance knackered

Lance Armstrong had a short but tough day today and boy did he look old and knackered as he led Levi over the finish line. He attacked on the Blockhaus climb and for a while he looked as if he could stay with the main men but when The Killer turned up the heat Lance was out the back door and fell back to Levi’s group of also rans.

Armstrong attacks freedom of expression

Is there no limit to Armstrong’s arrogance? greenjersey is watching Eurosport’s coverage of the Tour of California, a race that makes the Tour of Spain seem interesting.  The bunch was plodding up a long ramp when the American version of The Devil appeared running at the side of the group. He was carrying a trident with prongs fashioned to look like hypodermic syringes and showing the legend “LiveClean.” Rather amusing I thought but L.A. failed to appreciate the message and gave The Devil a sharp push and he went arse over tit in to the snow! greenjersey is unfamiliar with the California Penal Code it seemed like a case of common assault. I trust the Police Dept. will arrange a night in the cells for Mr Big.

The L.A. Show (Lance and Alberto)

Speaking at the start of the first stage of the Tour of the Algarve Alberto Contador said that both he and Armstrong deserve to lead the Astana team in the Tour de France. “He because of what he has done in the past and myself because of what I have achieved in the last two years” said the Spaniard. Sounds fair enough to greenjersey who has never understood what the supposed problem is in having two leaders. There is likely to be only one leader soon enough as the first mountain stages come early in the race. Of course Levi Leipheimer may be less than keen about Alberto’s “two leaders” strategy.
