The Last Word- Stage 5 (yep, you guessed it-late)

Every athlete born with the desire for greatness must first DREAM of what is POSSIBLE. Since 2004, the world has known Thomas Voeckler has the heart of a champion. Today, the Frenchman was rewarded with his first career stage win at the Tour. He seized his moment, and now has memories that will last a lifetime.

For Lance Armstrong and his Astana squad, it was a day of calculation and coordination. They rode smartly, and at times strongly, to stay out of trouble, AND, out of the wind. It was a tactical show of force.

Fabian Cancellara, the Swiss Sparticus, kept his wits about him as well. He rolls into Spain tomorrow with the Maillot Jaune on his shoulders, an honor only a select few ever earn.
