I have always looked two Lance Armstrong two ways- one, asone of the greatest a cycling champion and as an inspiration when my Mom was battling breast cancer. While these attributes can easily merge, the line between the two is very clear for me.

The last cyclist to do so was Eddy Merckx, who also incredibly won the sprint and mountain jerseys that year.

But was 2 seconds short on stage 1 to don the yellow jersey. After getting it after stage 4, I thought it was his jersey to lose. How wrong I was! Now, it's Jens Voights jersey, although temporarily. This amiable and hardworking German deserves this jersey, even for a couple of days but he knows he's not a contender for the overall.
