Starting this Saturday, Lance Armstrong begins his quest to become the first ever 6-time winner of the 2126 mile Tour de France (which actually begins in Belgium). Again being sponsored by the USPS, and with the same six teammates he had last year, one of the most incredible athletes of our time looks to set a record which will not be broken anytime in the near future. As it is not televised very well in the U.S., you can track the race on the Tour de France website.
P.S. Except for this race, the French suck!
Discovery Channel replaced the USPS.
