I think so. Would have been great to see him come back and win another just to F with the French.

Yeah... it would've...

I don't find the Tour de France as interesting anymore without Lance...

I imagine a person would need to exert a little effort to bike that far.

This year's race has been very exciting!!

And what Floyd Landis did today... UNREAL!!

Floyd showed the French sporting papers what the true American spirit is... i think he has plenty of PANACHE!!!!!


No Lance this year... but we have in Floyd a great replacement :)

Here's wishing Floyd a great time trial.

Agreed. I have been following it and I think it's very exciting. Too bad Landis likely won't be back to race the TdF again next year though.

I've never found it interesting with or without him.

Mount some machine guns on the bikes, maybe I'll watch ;)

Wow, what a comeback!. When I first read your post I was thinking WTH? What is he talking about? Landis is out, 8 minutes behind. I had just read about Wednesday's results in my local paper.

Floyd Landis has most definitely been the American to cheer for.
