exactly what i thought, Armstrong is in only one race per year, he keeps training for tour de france all the year, so nothing impressive... really... he is far from being the world champion

I liked him to win the tour 5 times, he is after all a great cyclist and a true champion. But six times doesn't reflect his status. Everyone that knows even a bit about cyclism also knows that on the list of cycling champions Armstrong comes way behind of Bernard Hinault and Eddy Merckx, the biggest cyclist of all times and strong enough to win all the races all year long.
Still being third isn't bad. And don't be too naive, Lance does take all sorts of illegal drugs, after all he has the same doctor as Simeoni...
But hey, all cyclist do on a top level.
