The Tour
Just a reminder that the Tour de France begins on Saturday. There is also another book out by Lance in case you wanted to do some follow-up reading on him. A great website is livestrong.com. He has been making a video diary almost everyday through the spring racing and training season. At the end of each video he makes a dedication to someone with cancer. He talks about them, what they are doing especially if it is something to raise cancer awareness or if they have passed he gives his thoughts and feelings to the family. Some of them are really touching. It looks like this year he will not be as hated in France and I think it's really because he has become such a spokesman for the cancer community. He spends countless hours campaigning and reaching out to cancer victims worldwide. Really a pretty cool thing, especially knowing his background. He is not riding to win the tour this year but is riding for his teammate A. Contador. Go Lance!!!
