Lance is going for No. 7!

Yes, it's true! Lance Armstrong will ride in the 2005 Tour de France and go for his seventh consecutive Tour victory. Several of the news feeds in the right column have more details, or you can read the Discovery Channel Pro Cycling Team's press release, which includes a schedule of events Armstrong is planning before the Tour.

I'm glad to see Lance include some of a couple of European classics. That has been a knock on him because he's so focused on the Tour de France.

By the way, I'm still having trouble adjusting to the fact he's riding for Discovery Channel rather than the U.S. Postal Service!
