you do know that we all know you looked dont ya...? i know it was only a peep, but it still qualifies as looking...

did you enjoy it...was it as bad as youd thought it would be...

(and dont deny it.. we all know you went there :p)

You know, I really didn't. And I won't either. I refuse to support anything or any company financially associated with the man......well, except for the races. I may get to re-plan that trip to Kazakhstan if they keep treating him badly however.

Not a Lance-hater, but...

I'm scratching my head, wondering why, if Mr. Armstrong returned "for a noble reason," i.e., on behalf of 8 million cancer-stricken patients worldwide, then why is he using his comeback to promote CTS training camps? (See http://trainright.com/info.asp?uid=3987).

Seems like credibility is a bit of an issue here, just as with his "toughest in the world" testing program.

I have to agree with you, but ya know, I'm tired of being tired...

Yep...laughing all the way to the bank. Carmichael doesnt know jack about training either compared to others like Coggan, even Friel and others.

I have to say....LMAO!!! Some of the posts in this thread have been tear inducing hilarity (not sure if that's a word or if spelled right).

If only Lance new he wasn't loved that much....ahh but that's ok, he has enough self love to keep himself warm at nights! ok, that is clearly a very weak slagging off of LA, best I could do, I admit I am outclassed in this area.:D

He also has a string of women who look like his mother to help out.

Oh dear.....

One side effect of chronic EPO use is excessive vascularization.

Any haters need another reason to hate? I thought the return was all about raising awareness for the fight against cancer?

SEVEN-TIME Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong says last year's race was a "a bit of a joke" and has revealed that watching it unfold helped convince him he could win it again.

It was won by Spaniard Carlos Sastre from Australian Cadel Evans, Austrian Bernard Kohl - who was later suspended for doping, Russian Denis Menchov and American Christian Vande Velde. But in a new book, Lance Armstrong - The World's Greatest Champion, Armstrong makes it very clear he believes that, had he still been racing, he would have won the Tour again.

While his comeback to racing is aimed at promoting his Livestrong global cancer awareness campaign, he also makes it clear that the goal of winning an eighth Tour title was a huge motivating factor in his return.

That challenge confronts him next Saturday when he and 179 riders line up for this year's Tour that starts in Monaco and finishes 3500km later on the Champs Elysees in Paris on July 26. Interest in Armstrong's return at the age of 37 will be massive.

In the book, Armstrong also reveals the strength of his belief that his winning days are far from over.

"I'll kick their asses," he told author John Wilcockson in a conversation soon after last year's Tour while discussing his planned comeback. "The Tour was a bit of a joke this year. I've got nothing against Sastre … or Christian Vande Velde. Christian's a nice guy, but finishing fifth in the Tour de France? Come on!"

Armstrong also reveals his anger for the way in which the US television network Versus covered the Tour, and how it portrayed his sixth and seventh Tours in 2004 and 2005.

"They had this 'Take back the Tour' campaign, as if the past Tours were all won by dopers. And I was ****ed they had these references to Triki Beltran and Tyler Hamilton and Roberto Heras and Floyd Landis - all these guys who were once on my team [and have since served doping suspensions]. Versus doesn't want to take back the Tour, they want to take back the ratings they had in 04 and 05!"

Armstrong, who has faced constant doping allegations despite never testing positive, is also keen to prove he is clean and hopes by racing the Tour again his four children will read about it.

"I'm doing this for my kids," he says in the book.

"With news so accessible these days on the web, they'll be able to read any story they want. And I don't want them growing up and reading all these things about me and doping."

HGH big time, and also synacthen, insulin post training.
