TdF: Astana, and Lance, welcome at 2009 race
|
I bet you see Armstrong still strong during the TT but struggle in the mountains. I don't think his age will hurt him as much as the lay off does. Joop Zoetemelk rode until he was forty and won the worlds when he was 38. I really think a cyclist can stay strong into his forties they just choose not to pursue any longer because it's to hard. He will have to thin down again but he wouldn't be doing this if he felt like he couldn't do well.

So if he doesn't lose power (i.e. goo ITT time) why will he lose climbing ability? recovery time? No more EPO? Too much weight? Do you think his famous high cadence style helps or hurts his comeback? |

I saw something go by on the bottom of my screen tonight about LeMond confronting Lance during a press conference today. Anybody hear anything about it?
