Starting on July 4th, this Saturday, the 96th Tour de France begins and in the roster for the Astana team is once again Lance Armstrong. Armstrong is undoubtedly one of the best athletes to ever live and is up there on legendary stature with Michael Jordan. The question is: can this 37 year old repeat his past victories or is he too old to be competitive against his younger rivals? In an interview (Click Here for full) yesterday, Armstrong says he is willing to take the backseat to help his teammate Alberto Contador win, but not to completely count him out of the running to add another gold to his collection. The race is a full three weeks ending on the 26th so we'll see where this champion ends up. Hopefully on top. Beast mode time for Armstrong!
