Now You See Him…Now You Don’t
I always thought this business of Our Boy Lance and Bad Boy Floyd participating in the Leadville Trail 100
So now it turns out that Lance won't be there.
"Lance had a scheduling conflict come up and he regrettably cannot participate in the event," said mountain-bike race in Colorado next August was premature.Mark Higgins, the seven-time Tour de France champion's manager.
OBL's as-yet-to-be-stripped successor as Tour champion, Floyd Landis, also has expressed interest in racing the Leadville 100. But the event carries a NORBA sanction, which means Landis would not be able to compete should he be suspended for his positive testosterone test at the 2006 Tour.
The course starts at over 10,000 feet of elevation and peaks at 12,600 feet. Armstrong's longtime coach, Chris Carmichael, raced in the 2006 event and finished in 9 hours, 18 minutes.
