Lance Armstrong says he is fully capable of winning the Tour de France for a 7th time. "Time is limited but I think I could win the Tour de France one more time," he said. George HIncapie says he is as motivated as he ever was and needs to win. "It's [winning] something he needs in his life. I've known the guy for a long time and that desire to win is as strong as ever. It's part of him, what motivaties him and keeps him going. It could be a World Cup race, whatever, Lance is just like that."
Lance hasn't said when he'll give it another go, but he's not getting any younger.
No one is getting any younger; mostly we are getting better.
ReplyDeletePart of me wants him to retire at the top of his game. Another part wants him to do it again and again. Number 7, 8.
Progress report: I am at the airport plenty early. ETA in Los Angeles is about 9:30 PM.
Well, no on is getting younger, but some are getting better, you're right. Lance's teammate, Vjatcheslav Ekimov, is getting better every year even at 38, so says the US Postal director sportiff, Johan Bruyneel. Let's hope this is true with Lance.
