for some of us I guess. I keep reading about how Armstrong has not done this or that...

This guy gets it and said it way better than I could (http://www.truesport.com/Bike/2004/news/brooks111004.html)

Having been a bike racer, made it to CATII and raced in those II I Pro categories, and having 10 people in my family succumb to cancer, I try to explain what that simple yellow band I wear means...it's not a fashion statement.

I hope you find this article as inspiring as I did.
