Le Tour 2006

Man was that exciting at the time trial today !

Honchar, Landis, Pereiro, and Kloden were just amazing. I know from my hobbyist interest in extreme aerobic sports that microscopic damage to muscle fibrils occurs after massive endurance feats that takes weeks to recover from. I wondered if Landis had sustained too much of it after his comeback in stage 17, but I guess not

Hail to the best sport in the world, and truly AMAZING athletes.
