You are audacious that it is on a bike or elsewhere (however I did not love you when you doubled the records of wins on the TOUR of legends ANQUETIL MERCKX HINAULT and INDURAIN) but records are made to be beaten, and on top of that by a Texan "courageux". (JOHN WAYNE would be happy with you HAHAHA) Come on, Legend you arrived at the panache, and this year people love you because you showed that you been human and less terminator. You remain the boss and even if contador is very gifted, it still has no sense of running and re-being confined to bed d ' a team. You would have been able to finish ASTANA in three on the podium, but it you have already known it. The best the single leader in a team is credit. In brief long life in your new team. Lance, I' shall have liked to throw me in cycling, at least tactically because I' am 39 years old today, I cannot make career any more (and then my job of state trooper takes me of time, I make only 2 000 kms a year in most. In fact I took you in photograph l ' other day in ANNECY in 01 km of l ' arrival. I had you in spite of the speed. if you come back on ANNECY, takes your bike, I shall run on the collar of BLUFFY with you. And I' have an idea as you but you must contact me to speak about it. Long life in LIVESTRONG and his mentor Congratulations Lance

Twelve years later I am cycling as strong as ever, and ever since they were put on the market I have worn a Livestrong bracelet. My brother has a place in Verbier, so naturally we will be there for a few days to ride, to cheer, and take photos as you all come up the Cat 1 climb into Verbier on stage 15 - all the best luck - we will be there rooting for you !

Whether you support a teammate or go for it yourself, I'm so happy to watch you ride again. In 2004, my beloved sister-in-law, Kathy, died of ovarian cancer while I was in France watching you win #6. I had decided not to go to France when she said she was going off chimo, but she said in no uncertain terms: "Don't you dare not go for a dream of yours on the off chance that I might die during those 2 weeks." Unfortunately that is what happened, but I have been wearing a LIVESTRONG bracelet, and giving them to anyone I meet who wants one, in her name and honor. Today I put on a new one (because the one I've been wearing for 5 years straight was getting too loose). I dedicated it in her name and I am supporting your ride in her name. Thank you! and I'll be watching every day. Whatever you do will be terrific in my eyes and those of the world! You are still and always my inspiration!
