Astana refutes Lance Return...
 

Maybe he decided to join Quick Step :p

Team of one.

Does he have to be on a team?

Well to get an invite to any pro races he has to. Now to do the local crit he doesn't but I don't think thats what he has in mind.

A team would help.... maybe he'll start his own team....i'm sure he wouldn't have a problem finding teammates...

mazda...that's gotta be Wayne Coyne in your avatar, no?

They are lying through their rotting Khazak teeth. Boratsky weasels.

Who's going to clean up the coffee that I spit on my keyboard? :lol:

For the next ten years or so, we are gonna suffer from bouts of "Armstrong is coming back" rumors started by bored journalists. Don't believe such reports unless they come out of Armstrong's mouth. He won't enter a race he will lose, so he won't be entering the Tour de France.

Dude, write a new post. You can't keep posting the same idiotic comment in every thread.

I'd dismiss it as an unconfirmed rumor, if he hadn't submitted himself to the out of competition testing protocol, just in time for the Tour of California.

Out of competition testing is a major pain. You sleep over at your Girlfriend's house, and the Testers have to be notified. No sane person would subjigate themselves to the program unless they have a definite intent to race again.

You must be New Here. New Here, meet Alan. Alan, meet New Here.

Now touch gloves and come out fighting.

ABH is semi-retired now, thank you, at home basking in his fame and fortunes. We have other, younger, hungrier pugilists here to pick up the slack.

You mean pcad, botto and chipcom? :p

Nope.

your right, he signed up for random drug testing because has a chronic addiction to peeing in plastic cups

Are you kidding? You do that about twenty thousand times over three years and you have the BF Pcad Legend.

Nah, I've tussled with ABH before, particularly in the epic BD Wars of the Summer of '06. Good times. We lost many a good man that summer.

Don't wrestle with the pig...

If it's one thing the internet has taught me it's that there's really no accounting for taste. :eek: :D

It's what BF is based on!

More insight from our alan. Read it and weep, bikerboy. :D

“I’m going back to professional cycling. I’m going to try and win an eighth Tour de France.”

Armstrong will embarrass himself next July. He could have been like Rocky Marciano, and retired as "The Champ". Instead, he wants to be like Ali, and retire as "The Chump".

When he is humiliated next July, he will simply be feeding the growing belief around the world that his prior victories were fueled by illegal drugs and that he can NOT win under a strict drug testing program.

Man, you hit that one right on the head! A true oracle in our midst. He is also great at using copy/paste. Why don't you just quit while you are behind.

So which is it, alan? "...he won't be entering the Tour de France" or "Armstrong will embarrass himself next July." You seem conflicted.
