Lance the dancing american on his bike and Jan the big german machine just grinding out his big gears.
I think it kind of happened, mostly in the TT's.
I'll never forget last year in the final TT when LA passed Janny Boy, he might as well of spanked him on his butt as he passed by, I think it was that much of blow to Janny Boy's pysche.

Probably, but despite being fierce competitors, the two are good friends...
As for T-Mobile, regardless of how you feel about the guy, I think it was classless move and a PR thing. I mean, if he's eventually found guilty, he'll most likely be banned from cycling for two years, so it will be a moot point...

It will probably take a lot longer than two years for things to play out and any verdict comes out it. European justice is sllllllloooooooowwwwwww...
And in that time Ullrich will probably have a hard time finding a team.
If T-Mobile, is distancing themselves from him, who will hire him?

An American Continues To Wear Yellow In Paris!
What an incredible Tour this has been!
Bike racing at it's best!
Eight or Nine Lead changes!
Epic mountain stages filled with agony and ecstacy!
Incredible time trials!
Thanks Floyd!
Thanks to all the other American racers!
We can thank all the other racers too, but I am VERY partial to whom I root for.
:D
