He'll be wearing some some commemorative Livestrong Fox Airline Racewear. Don't forget, the Tour de Lance...er, France starts this weekend, too.

Thats awesome. I was wondering if someone, (one of the Nike Sponsored Riders) would be doing this. Last weekend it was golf, this week OUR sport. I think its awesome that Nike has taken the Livestrong Initaitve seriously.

GO Lance!

The green jersey will be between boonen, cavendish and hushovd.

the yellow jersey, i say lance, but there are a couple contenders like the schleck brothers.

cool to see at times, but everyone knows that the guy who wins, has the best doping.

Isn't Boonen out ? Contador, is more on form than LA. I think he will prevail, if he doesn't it will be another rider from another team. I think Astana is having mental issues. jmo

Irvine...missed my original flight, but that one wouldn't have gotten me there in time anyway.

Oh, I heard a funny rumor about Nike MX boots (again) yesterday.

I thought Lance was riding in a "support role" for Contador, is this a smoke screen?

The best thing about the Tour this year is the come back of the Team Time Trial!

Sure hope Astana can get their ego's in check.

*also the addition of Mont Ventoux on Stage 20. That stage is a trip, it looks like they are on another planet when they get to the top.

The Nike boot thing reminds me when they got into Hockey. Their first skates were anchors, Fedorov took a different brand and made them look like Nike. They got it right after awhile, but they really screwed the pooch at first. They had a big hole to dig out of. It will be interesting seeing their approach to Mx boots vs what is out there. Fresh approach may be good.

Boonen is in as of Fridaymorning, 1 day before the start :D

Lance might say that he's supporting Contador, but no way a champion like LA isn't going to go for the Yellow jersey, he's got ball(s), and i hope he shows those wimps what cycling is.

last year's tour was awful, one guy put on one charge in the penultimate stage and he wins the friggin thing.

they got it right in hockey when they combined with bauer, an already established top notch company. they could go that route and have a nike/661 or nike/tcx etc... whatever they decide to do, im sure they will get it right eventually.

Keep an eye on Cadel Evans former Mountain bike racer and two time second place finisher in the tour. I don't know if his team can get him there but he is strong.
