I liked Lance. He was a heck of a tour rider. With the great tour we are watching who really cares where Lance is? My prediction is Lance will have no influence on the outcome on the tour this year.

I think he'll be there this weekend. He still is a part owner and the free TV time can't hurt when trying to get a new moneyman.

If Lance showed up, he would overshadow what has been a great Tour so far. Versus would be showing more pictures of him riding in the support cars than of the riders themselves.
All of the headlines both here and in Europe wouldn't be who won the stage or is wearing the jersey but the story of Lance showing up.
He's doing the right thing by staying away.
