Howard Stern interview with Lance...
I should add that I was one of the first guys on Taco and amongst my cycling buddies to call him out....way before it was official, and I still hate him for the way he treated his detractors. ... but he's 45 now with 5 kids and I find his reappearance in public interesting at least.

Holloweski-Citadel did a great job on the lead out yesterday for Ty to win the stage at Tour Of Utah. Kinda bummed I couldn't go this year. I hope they go back to southern Utah again next year. The Zion/Bryce stages were amazing! 9 more days until the Colorado Classic. Looks like NBCSN will air it. Nice!

You can read my article about hanging with 5-time Tour de France champion Miguel Indurain at this free link:

That was a wonderful three weeks!

I had forgotten about Hampsten going with Banesto.. He must have been hired to work for Miguel...? What an honor to ride with Miguel... I read something about him hanging in the announciing booth at the tour one year and falling asleep ... His 32 bpm resting heart rate had to have something to do with his ability to nap on command...? Cool article Bruce...

Yes, Andy was hired to ride for Miguel, but it never happened due to some unforeseen circumstances. After riding with the team in Colorado, they invited me to the 1996 Tour de France to see Miguel win his record breaking sixth win. I couldn't make it which turned out to be good since Miguel didn't end up winning.

Sagan did well during the Tour de Pologne. As usual, he took the overall Sprinters Jersey. Even shaved off his locks.....the new "Aero-Peter"!
