« Tennessee's Tax Surplus Soars in June | Main | Too Close » July 8, 2005"One week down, two to go."Lance Armstrong continues to lead the Tour de France after today's seventh stage. His closest rival, Alexandre Vinokourov, is 62 seconds back. For the uninitiated, a rider can win the TdF without ever winning any of the 21 stages, by completing the whole three-week race in the shortest overall time. The race leader is the rider with the lowest time, not the rider who has won the most stages. The race is heading toward the mountain stages. Watch for Lance's Discovery Channel team and Vinokourov's T-Mobile team to set a fairly brutal pace in the flat parts of the upcoming mountain stages in hopes of wearing out most of the pack of riders before the mountain stages.
