This is a very nice article about the
U.S. Postal TEAM, not just about Lance.
Its written by Sally Jenkins (coauthor Its Not about the Bike)
so she knows what she's talking about.

I think its my favourite TdF article yet.

Washington Post USPS article (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A35048-2003Jul9.html)

There may be a brief survey, age, zip (post) code. fill it
out the article is worth it.

"... everyone knows that no solo rider could survive the entire race by himself. It makes other sports seem selfish by comparison."

Loved it!
