From the Lance Show to the Landis Show...
Floyd Landis riding for the Phonak team, who used to ride with the Discovery Team (Team Armstrong), has won the 93rd Tour de France! I've been hearing a lot of comments about how the tour is much better this year without my hero riding in it, but really, they've done nothing more than switch the spotlight from one American to another....Even when Landis lost the jersey (back in Stage 16 was it??) all the headlines read "Landis Cracks" "Landis looses Yellow Jersey" "Landis is getting bullied on the course"....but he came back, i'm assuming with fresh new oxygenated blood to help him along and took the yellow jersey back, and kept it this time!Also worthy of mention, McEwen for green (fastest sprint), Rasmussen for Polka-dot (King of the Mountains), Cunego for White (Best Young Rider), possibly my new crush??
Overall, pretty excitting Tour! Lance is still the best though :)
