Considering all the slack that most cycling fan's cut for likes of blatent cheaters like Pantani, you'd think that we'd have a bit more respect for the first American to win the TdF. Despite the less than gracious remarks toward our 'beloved' Lance, Greg is, and was, a great champion. He came back from an injury that would have kept most of us from even riding a bike again to win the greatest cycling event in the world.
