If there is a defining characteristic of a man as opposed to a boy, maybe it's patience.

I guess if I looked at it from an athletic standpoint, I don't really need to win another Tour. Seven Tours for me was a dream, six broke the record, so that eight doesn't really mean much.
Lance Armstrong
Image
I've given gifts in the Tour de France and it's come back to bit me. So no gifts.

I figure the faster I pedal, the faster I can retire.

Chasing records doesn't keep me on my bike. Happiness does.

Cycling is so hard, the suffering is so intense, that it’s absolutely cleansing. The pain is so deep and strong that a curtain descends over your brain….Once someone asked me what pleasure I took in riding for so long. ‘PLEASURE???? I said.’ ‘I don’t understand the question.’ I didn’t do it for the pleasure I did it for the pain.

What is stronger, fear or hope?

A bike ride. Yes, that's it! A simple bike ride. It's what I love to do and most days I can't believe they pay me to do it. A day is not the same without it.
