I love the " Tour de France"... It is a bike race held each July for most of the month. I get into the strategy of the race and all the great stories. One day I hope to watch in person however It is currently on TV in HD. I can now fly over in a helicopter each and every day. You can watch it on VERUS. live and taped through out the day. Lance Armstrong is a resilient hero. He is currently riding his last tour..not to win (he has won 7X), though that may have been his dream, but to show he can. Today he went on a Break AWAY.. A small group leaves the peloton (other riders) and goes faster to gain time and win. His performance today was inspiring. NOT because he won.. he did not. But because he left his ego in the bus and went for it over four huge climbs and came in with the small group he had gone with all day. In an interview at the end he admitted " i didn't have it" (to win) but to me .... he did... why? the TRY. He did not hold off as he could have. but he attacked and went for it. He tried, he tried... he tried.
Last night I also saved the lives of my children from a strange infestation of carpenter ants by killing every last.. .......one......................................
