My dear wife gave me "It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life" by Lance Armstrong. Read it cover to cover before the day was over... GREAT book. Then went online that evening and the first thing that comes up on AOL was a poll of 2002's Greatest Moments in Sports. Lance's 2002 Tour victory was not even listed among the eight or so choices!!! I voted "other" and went to the discussion forum where there were dozens of messages from other bikers who felt the same indignation as I. ("Other" got about 20% of the votes, by the way, coming in second... from the flames on the discussion forum, I'd guess most of those votes were for Lance). Nice to know there are so many vocal bikers out there.
