"I didn't respond to his attack immediately, because I felt it was not the best time and place to do that. We had a long and hard descent ahead of us, and then there was still Luz Ardiden. I thought it would be better to establish a rhythm, and let him get five or ten seconds, and then keep him there like if we were doing two separate time trials or something. I actually got very close to him, but he just kept powering up that mountain, and I thought. 'Well, if you are gonna keep riding like that, you can go ahead and win this race, because I just cannot do that.' But obviously, it was a bit too early to ride like that."
I especially love the last second last sentence about "if you are going to keep riding like that, you can go ahead and win this race because I cannot do that.
Have we not all had moments like that when you just know that you have been out done by the other person and there is nothing that you can do about it. It's geat to hear that it happens to Lance as well. I guess he is human after all!
